Pal Properties (I) Pvt. Ltd. vs Commissioner Of Income-Tax on 21 December, 2001

36. The Respondent Revenue has sought to distinguish the decision of Delhi High Court, in the case of Pal Properties (supra) on the ground that the lease in that case had expired. In our view, that is not the correct reading of the facts of the case. The Respondent cannot pick-up one line from facts of the case and contend that ratio of that case is not applicable. Although the lease had expired, but the Assessee therein terminated the lease agreement for non-payment of rent and the issue before the Court was post termination of the lease and the matter being subjudice before the civil court, the Court held no income accrues post termination. It was on these facts that the Delhi High Court came to a conclusion that till the matter is decided by the Civil Court, there cannot be any accrual of income in favour of the Assessee. The facts of the Appellant Assessee before us are similar to that before the Delhi High Court and same supports the Appellant Assessee.

In this case, the Assessee's land was acquired by the State Government and the Land Acquisition officer awarded a sum of 10 (1997) 225 ITR 746 (SC) 11 (1986) 161 ITR 524 (SC) 21 of 31 ::: Uploaded on - 04/12/2023 ::: Downloaded on - 05/12/2023 07:30:13 ::: sg itxa699-02.doc Rs.24,97,295/- as the compensation payable to the Assessee. The Assessee was not satisfied with the amount of compensation preferred an appeal before the Arbitrator. The Arbitrator made an award dated 29th July 1955 fixing the amount of compensation at Rs.30,16,787/- on account of the permanent acquisition of the land. Thus, in addition to the original amount of compensation further compensation was awarded amounting to Rs.5,13,624/- and on which he directed interest at the rate of 5% per annum from January 8, 1953, the date of acquisition upto the date of payment. The State Government filed an appeal against the said award to the High Court. During the pendency of the appeal, the State Government deposited Rs.736691/-, which the Assessee was permitted to withdraw on 9th of May 1956 on furnishing security. On receipt of the amount, the Assessee credited it in its suspense account on the same date. The issue arose when the sum of Rs.736631/- can be said to have accrued during the relevant assessment year 1956-57 for the previous year ending 31 st March 1956. The Supreme Court reiterating the principle laid down in the case of E.D. Sassoon & Co. Ltd. observed that there was no absolute right to receive the amount at the time of withdrawing the sum because if the appeal of the State Government was allowed in its entirety, the right to payment of the enhanced compensation would fall altogether.

P. Mariappa Gounder (Dead) By Lrs. vs Commissioner Of Income Tax, Madras on 21 January, 1998

35. The Respondent has sought to distinguish the judgments relied upon by the Appellant on the ground that those are cases where enhanced compensation was in dispute before the Civil Court and either the same was not ascertained or the lease had expired and, therefore, unascertained sum cannot be taxed whereas, in the instant case, the sum is already ascertained and the IDBI is willing to offer the said amount but the Appellant is not accepting the same and, therefore, merely because the Appellant is not accepting the rent offered by the IDBI, it cannot be said that no income accrues. It is on these facts that the decision relied upon by the Appellant, according to the Respondent, are not applicable to the facts of the present case. In our view, this is not a correct contention on the part of the Revenue.

Khan Bahadur Ahmed Alladin & Sons vs Commissioner Of Income-Tax, Andhra ... on 24 November, 1967

The Supreme Court held that it was on the final determination of the amount of compensation that the right to such income would arise or accrue and, till then, there was no liability in presenti in respect of the additional amount of compensation claimed by the owner of the land. The Supreme Court made a distinction between cases where the right to receive payment is in dispute and it is not a question of merely quantifying the amount to be received and cases where the right to receive payment is admitted and the quantification of the amount received is left to be payable in amount of settled principles. Since the right to receive itself was in dispute, no income accrued to the Assessee in that case.
