Income Tax Officer vs Sunil M. Kasliwal on 7 March, 2003

7. The apex Court in the case of Chamundi Granites (P) Ltd. v. Dy. CIT (2002) 255 ITR 258 (SC) has held that the object of introducing Section 269SS was to ensure that taxpayer is not allowed to give false explanation for his unaccounted money, or if he makes some false entries, he shall not escape by giving false explanation for the same. During search and seizures, unaccounted money is unearthed and the taxpayer would usually give the explanation that he had borrowed or received deposits from his relatives or friends and it is easy for the so-called lender also to manipulate his records to suit the plea of the taxpayer. The main object of Section 269SS was to curb this menace of making false entries in the account books and later giving an explanation for the same.

Mr. Bhupendra Kumar Bhaumik vs Union Of India (Uoi) And Ors. on 29 October, 2002

18. Another authoritative pronouncement of the Apex Court is , Assistant Director of Inspection Investigation v. A.B. Shanthi and Chamundi Granites Pvt. Ltd. v. Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax, Bangalore and Anr. The main attack in the said case was against Section 269SS of the Act on the basis that it violated Article 14 of the Constitution. In that case, it sought to penalise the borrower alone and not the lender, thus discriminating between them though they formed part of the same transaction. According to this provision, no person was to take or accept from any other person any loan or deposit otherwise than by an account payee cheque or an account payee bank draft if the amount was Rs. 20,000/- or more. Section 276DD of the Act provided punishment with imprisonment for a borrower who without a reasonable cause or excuse takes or accept any loan or deposit in contravention of the provisions of Section 269SS. It was under these circumstances that it was urged that it discriminated between a borrower and a lender and thus violated Article 14 of the Constitution of India. The Apex Court, after considering the relevant provisions of the Act and the legislative intent behind the enactment of Section 269SS of the Act, held, that though the borrower and lender could be said to be equal integral part of the same transaction but when viewed from the angle of tax evasion, they could not be regarded an equals or similarly situated and the provisions seeking to penalise the borrower alone and not the lender was held to be not discriminatory. The Apex Court further re-affirmed the settled position of law that a tax legislation is a policy matter and it is for the Parliament to decide the manner in which legislation should be made.
