    (27000)

    Notes:-1. VAT paid on purchase of capital goods is eligible for input tax credit. However, the same

    has to be spread over a period of two years.

    2. VAT system allows credit in respect of purchases made during a period to be set-off

    against the taxable sales during that period, irrespective of when the supplies/inputs

    purchased are utilized/sold. Therefore, input tax credit in respect of closing stock of raw

    materials need not be reduced from total input tax credit available.

    Note: The statement in the question, Input credit is allowed only on raw materials used in

    manufacture of the taxable goods, implies that the same is not allowable in respect of sale of

    goods within the State which are exempt from levy of VAT.

    (ii) A company located in the State of Jammu & Kashmir rendered service in Delhi. Is the

    service provided by the company liable for service tax?

    (iii) Service rendered to a friend free of cost.

    Solution 3(b):Answer (i):

    Exemption to services provided for personal use or for use of Family Members of Diplomatic

    Agents or Career Consular Officers posted in Foreign Diplomatic Mission / Consular Post in

    India as per Notification No. 34/2007 dated 23.05.2007

    Answer (ii):

    Yes, when the company located in the State of Jammu & Kashmir had rendered services outside

    the State, the service tax would be attracted as the location where service is provided is relevant.

    Answer (iii):

    Service tax is not payable on free service. Service tax is payable only when there is

    consideration. No service tax is payable when value of service is 'zero' as the charging section-section 66 provides that service tax is chargeable on the value of taxable service.

    3(c). Mr. Janak bought 200 listed shares on 19.04.2010 @ `2,000 per share.

    He gifted these shares to his wife Mrs. Janki on 21.03.2011.

    On 01.04.2011, bonus shares were allotted in the ratio of 1:1.

    All these shares were sold by Mrs. Janki as under:

  • 7/29/2019 Amendments 2013

    Briefly state the income-tax consequences in respect of the sale of the shares by Mrs. Janki,

    showing clearly the person in whose hands the same is chargeable, the quantum and the head of

    income in respect of the above transactions. Detailed computation of total income is NOT

    required.

    Net sales value represents the amount credited after all taxes, levies, brokerage, etc., and the samemay be adopted for computing the capital gains.

    Solution 3(c):

    Where an asset has been transferred by an individual to his spouse otherwise than for adequate

    consideration, the income arising from the sale of the said asset by the spouse will be clubbed in

    the hands of the individual.

    Where there is any accretion to the asset transferred, income arising to the transferee from such

    accretion will not be clubbed. Hence, the profit from sale of bonus shares allotted to Mrs. Janki

    will be chargeable to tax in the hands of Mrs. Janki.

    Therefore, the capital gains arising from the sale of the original shares has to be included in the

    hands of Mr. Janak, and the capital gains arising from the sale of bonus shares would be taxable

    in the hands of Mrs. Janki.

    Mrs. Hema has received shares from her friend, Mrs. Janki, for inadequate consideration. Eventhough shares fall within the definition of property under section 56, the provisions of section

    56 would not be attracted in the hands of Mrs. Hema, since the difference between the fair market

    value of shares and actual sale consideration does not exceed `50,000.

    `

    otherwise of each gift

    occasion of

    marriage are not taxable.

    (q) Cousin of Mrs. Rashmis mother 18,000 Cousin of Mrs. Rashmis

    mother isnot a relative. Hence, the gift

    is taxable.

    (r) Elder brother of husbands grandfather 25,000 Brother of husbands

    grandfather is

    not a relative. Hence, the gift is

    taxable.

  • 7/29/2019 Amendments 2013

    33/39

    (s) Friend 2,000 Gift from friend is

    taxable.

    Aggregate value of gifts 45,000

    Since the aggregate value of gifts received by Mrs. Rashmi during the previous year 2011-12

    does not exceed `50,000, the same is not chargeable to tax under section 56 of the Income-TaxAct, 1961.

    Gift received from the employer in kind upto `5,000 is exempt from income tax but excess over it

    is taxable hence in this case taxable amount of gift shall be `16,000 (21,000 5,000)

    6(b). (i) Explain the role of chartered Accountants in proper compliance of VAT. (Any 4 points).

    (ii) Briefly explain the benefits of the system of cross-checking under VAT as per White Paper.

    Solution 6(b)(i):

    Under the VAT system, trust has been reposed on tax payers, as there will be no regularassessment of all VAT returns, but only a few VAT returns will be taken up for scrutiny

    assessment. In other cases, the return filed by the trader will be accepted. It will not be also seenwhether proper records have been maintained by the trader.

    As a consequence, a check on compliance becomes essential. Chartered Accountants can ensure

    tax compliance by:-

    (i) helping the client in systematic record keeping;

    (ii) helping the client in interpretation of the provisions of VAT law, and

    (iii) performing audit of VAT accounts.

    (iv) reporting the under-assessment, if any, made by the dealer requiring additional payment or

    (v) reporting any excess payment of tax warranting refund to the tax payers.

    Solution 6(b)(ii):

    In the VAT system more emphasis has been laid on self-assessment. Hence, a system of cross-

    checking is essential. Dealers may be asked to submit the list of sales or purchases above a

    certain monetary value or to give the dealer-wise list from whom or to whom the goods have been

    purchased/sold for values exceeding a prescribed monetary ceiling.A cross-checking computerized system is being worked out on the basis of coordination between

    the tax authorities of the State Government and the authorities of Central Excise and Income-tax

    to compare constantly the tax returns and set-off documents of VAT system of the States and

    those of Central Excise and Income-tax. This comprehensive cross-checking system will helpreduce tax evasion and also lead to significant growth of tax revenue. At the same time, by

    protecting the interests of tax-complying dealers against the unfair practices of tax-evaders, the

    system will also bring in more equal competition in the sphere of trade and industry.

    6(c). Test the veracity of the following assertions with reference to the statutory provisions relating
