Kedarnath Jute Mfg. Co. Ltd vs Commissioner Of Income Tax, Central ... on 17 August, 1971

1. A very ticklish issue is involved in this appeal. The assessee was running the business of country liquor at Agra city and suburbs thereof. As per orders of the Government liquor shops are closed for several days and the sale was also restricted during certain working hours. The assessee, therefore, sought to make a claim for loss of Rs. 9,90,000 incurred by it due to this closure of the assessee's business. The ITO, therefore, called upon the assessee as to why this amount should not be treated as the assessee's income during the relevant accounting year and after getting the assessee's reply he added back this figure. On appeal, the Commissioner (Appeals) was of the opinion that in paragraph 6 of his direction the IAC had himself observed that keeping in view the facts and decision cited, he was of the opinion that the liability on account of licence fee incurred as per contract with the excise department was totally allowable. Thereafter referring to Kedarnath Jute Mfg. Co. Ltd. v. CIT [1971] 82 ITR 363 (SC), Addl.

Shri Someshwar Sahakari Sakhar ... vs Income-Tax Officer on 22 September, 1984

This is not a statutory liability of the department to refund the licence fee in respect of those days on which the assessee had to close down its shops. The fact that the assessee made such a claim does not necessarily mean that the whole of the amount claimed accrued to the assessee. Every kind of claim on the basis of contractual obligations will not necessarily involve accrual of income. For example, in the case of Shri Someshwar Sahakari Sakhar Karkhana Ltd. v. ITO [1985] 11 ITD 335 (Pune) (SB) the assessee had filed a writ petition in a High Court challenging the action of the Government in fixing the rate of levy sugar and he was allowed by the High Court to receive a higher rate subject to a bank guarantee. It was held that the ITO was not justified in treating the impugned excess realisation as part of sale price and taxing it as a revenue receipt.

Harish Chandra And Others vs Commissioner Of Income-Tax on 19 December, 1983

Again in the case of Harish Chandra v. CIT [ 1985] 154 ITR 478 (Delhi) the question involved was taxability of capital gains on enhanced compensation awarded by the District Judge. It was held that so long as the appeals against the orders of the District Judge were pending the enhanced compensation determined by him could not be deemed to have accrued and would not be taken into account in computing the amount of capital gains.

Commissioner Of Income-Tax, Bombay ... vs Babulal Narottamdas, Legal Heirs Of ... on 9 July, 1975

3. On behalf of the department reliance was placed upon the case of CIT v. Babulal Narottamdas, Legal Heirs of Narottamdas Jethalal [1976] 105 ITR 721 (Bom.). In that case there had been a resolution to give additional special remuneration to the assessee. Though the resolution was challenged by some co-sharers, the High Court ultimately upheld the resolution what was held by the High Court was that the amount payable under the resolution was taxable in the years to which it related to. Obviously it was a payment in pursuance of the resolution and there was no dispute between the company and the assessee over this payment. Therefore, there could be no dispute about its accrual.

Commissioner Of Income-Tax vs Planters Co. (P.) Ltd. on 14 November, 1979

The other case cited was CIT v. Planters Co. (P.) Ltd. [1980] 123 ITR 648 (Mad.), what was held in that case was only that the sales tax collected by the assessee earlier could not be brought to tax in a particular year because it had been transferred to the profit and loss account of that year and omission to tax it in the earlier year was no ground for taxing in that year. In the present case the position is rather different. Here the assessee claimed some compensation from the Government but the amount of that claim has never been decided. It was stated on behalf of the assessee that whatever claim was accepted by the Government the assessee was prepared to be taxed thereon, whenever it was so done. This we think would be more fair to both the parties because it is premature to say what would be the ultimate fate of the assessee's claim. The mere fact that some stay orders in relation to the closing of liquor shops were issued is not conclusive of the genuineness of the assessee's claim, and it would not be safe to tax the entire claim in this year. The department would be at liberty to bring it to tax as and when the assessee gets any further amount from the Government. With these remarks, we are of the opinion that there is no force in this appeal which is hereby dismissed.
