It is noticed that the officers of the Department have been conducting audit of tax payers allotted to state authorities and whenever any modus operandi is noticed in evading tax in a particular trade, the audits are confined to State allotted taxpayers only leaving the tax payers allotted to central tax authorities unattended.

  1. Both the Central and State tax administration shall have the power to take intelligence based enforcement action in respect of the entire value chain.
  2. Powers under IGST Act shall be cross empowered to the State tax administration on the same basis as under the CGST and SGST Acts either under law or under Article 258 of the Constitution but with the exception that the Central tax administration shall alone have the power to adjudicate a case where the disputed issue relates to place of supply, or when an affected State requests that the case be adjudicated by the CGST authority and for such issues of export and import as may be discussed in the Law Committee of officers and brought back to the Council for decision:

Further in the coordination meeting of the Central Tax and State Tax authorities of Andhra Region the following decisions relate to Enforcement Activities are taken. 

  1. Intelligence based irregularities: – The authority detecting the evasion will take up the complete follow up action of investigation adjudication etc. The incident reports will be sent to the counterpart Chief Commissioner soon after the inspection or search.
  2. TRAN-I Verification: – All pending legacy issues will be handled by respective authorities in respective of to whom tax payer is allotted.
  3. Non- Filers: – The authority to whom tax payer is allotted will issue notices to non- filers.

GST Amendment Act 2018 Notified : GST News 464

No Expenses disallowance for non-deduction of TDS if bills not received :GUJARAT HC

No TDS was deducted on expenses provisions as the same was contingent liability and the bills were not issued which were issued subsequently and on that the TDS was deducted as and when the final bills were received.

HIGH COURT OF GUJARAT

Principal Commissioner of Income-tax-4, Ahmedabad

v.

Sanghi Infrastructure Ltd.

M.R. SHAH AND A.Y. KOGJE, JJ.

R/TAX APPEAL NO. 404 OF 2018

JULY  16, 2018

Nitin K. Mehta for the Petitioner. Mrs. Mauna M. Bhatt for the Respondent.

JUDGMENT

 

M.R. Shah, J. – Feeling aggrieved and dissatisfied with the impugned order dated 30.09.2016 passed by the learned Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, Ahmedabad “B” Bench, Ahmedabad (hereinafter referred to as “Tribunal”) in ITA No.2516/Ahd/2012 for the Assessment Year 2009-10, the Revenue has preferred the present Tax Appeal with following proposed questions of law.

“[A] Whether the Appellate Tribunal is right in law and on facts in deleting the disallowances to the tune of Rs.4,24,30,623/-?
[B] Whether the Appellate Tribunal is right in law and on facts in confirming the order of the CIT (Appeals) in deleting the disallowances made on account of Lease rental payments, disallowance of Rs.70,00,000/- u/s 37(1) of the Act on account of Operating & Maintenance charges and repairs & maintenance charges of Rs.60,00,000/- u/s 40(a)(ia) of the Act on the payments on which the TDS was not deducted by the assessee?
[C] Whether the Appellate Tribunal is right in law and on facts in not appreciating the facts that the payment were reimbursed by the assessee company without deducting the TDS?”

2. We have heard Mrs. Bhatt, learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the Revenue at length. We have considered in detail the assessment order passed by the Assessing Officer, the order passed by the learned CIT (A) as well as the order passed by the learned Tribunal and the reasonings and findings recorded by the learned CIT (A) as well as the learned Tribunal.

3. Now, so far as the proposed question No. A viz. deleting dis-allowance to the tune of Rs.4,24,30,623/- by the learned CIT (A) and confirmed by the learned Tribunal is concerned, at the outset it is required to be noted that dis-allowance were made by the Assessing Officer under Section 40(a)(ia) of the Income Tax Act (hereinafter referred to as “IT Act”) on the ground that the TDS amount was not deducted by the assessee. However, considering the material on record, the learned CIT (A) as well as the learned Tribunal have observed that infact the payments were reimbursement of lease rent charges paid to lessor viz. SREI Infrastructure Ltd. by Sanghi Industries Ltd. (SIL) and the TDS was deducted and paid by the concerned assessee – SIL. Considering the above, it cannot be said that the learned CIT (A) as well as the learned Tribunal committed any error in deleting such dis-allowance.

4. Now, so far as the proposed question No. B viz. deleting dis-allowance made on account of lease rental payments, dis-allowance of Rs.70 lakh under Section 37(1) of the IT Act on account of operating and maintenance charges and repairs and maintenance charges of Rs.60 lakh under Section 40(a)(ia) of the IT Act on the payments on which TDS was not deducted by the assessee is concerned, it is required to be noted that in the year under consideration, no TDS was deducted as the same was contingent liability and the bills were not issued which were issued subsequently and on that the TDS was deducted as and when the final bills were received. Considering the above, no error has been committed by the learned CIT (A) as well as the learned Tribunal in deleting the dis-allowance. We are in complete agreement with the view taken by the learned Tribunal as well as the learned CIT (A).

5. Now, so far as the proposed question No.C is concerned, the same is consequential to question No.B, which is held against the Revenue as observed hereinabove.

6. In view of the above and for the reasons stated above, no substantial question of law arise in the present Tax Appeal and the same deserves to be dismissed and is, accordingly, dismissed.

Pure Agent Concept in GST : Analysis

Pure Agent Concept in GST

INTRODUCTION

The GST Act defines an Agent as a person including a factor, broker, commission agent, arhatia, del credere agent, an auctioneer or any other mercantile agent, by whatever name called, who carries on the business of supply or receipt of goods or services or both on behalf of another.

So, who is a pure agent and why is a pure agent relevant under GST? Broadly speaking, a pure agent is one who while making a supply to the recipient, also receives and incurs expenditure on some other supply on behalf of the recipient and claims reimbursement (as actual, without adding it to the value of his own supply) for such supplies from the recipient of the main supply.

While the relationship between them (provider of service and recipient of service) in respect of the main service is on a principal to principal basis, the relationship between them in respect of other ancillary services is that of a pure agent.

Let’s understand the concept by taking an example.A is an importer and B is a Custom Broker. A approaches B for customs clearance work in respect of an import consignment.The clearance of import consignment and delivery of the consignment to A would also require taking service of a transporter.So A, also authorises B, to incur expenditure on his behalf for procuring the services of a transporter and agrees to reimburse B for the transportation cost at actuals.In the given illustration, B is providing Customs Brokers service to A, which would be on a principal to principal basis. The ancillary service of transportation is procured by B on behalf of A as a pure
agent and expenses incurred by B on transportation should not form part of value of Customs Broker service provided by B to A.This, in sum and substance is the relevance of the pure agent concept in GST.

RELEVANCE OF PURE AGENT UNDER GST

The concept is borrowed from the erstwhile Service Tax Determination of Value Rules, 2006 and carried forward under GST. Under the GST Valuation Rules 2017 ( Rule 33 of CGST Rules 2017 ), a pure agent is given the following meanings.

A “pure agent” means a person who:

(a) enters into a contractual agreement with the recipient of supply to act as his pure agent to incur expenditure or costs in the course of supply of goods or services or both

(b) neither intends to hold nor holds any title to the goods or services or both so procured or provided as pure agent of the recipient of supply

(c) does not use for his own interest such goods or services so procured

(d) receives only the actual amount incurred to procure such goods or services in addition to the amount received for the supply he provides on his own account

The important thing to note is that a pure agent does not use the goods or services so procured for his own interest and this fact has to be determined from the terms of the contract.In the illustration of Importer and Customs Broker given above, assuming that the contract was for clearance of goods and delivery to the Importer at the price agreed upon in the contract.In such case, the Customs Broker would be using the transport service for his own interest (as the agreement requires him to deliver the goods at the importers place) and thus would not be considered as a pure agent for the services of transport procured.

Another important fact is that, the person who provides any service as a pure agent receives only the actual amount for the services provided. Coming back to our example of Importer and Customs Broker, the agreement provides reimbursement of transport services utilised at actuals.

In this case, let’s say the value of transport service was Rs.10,000/-.If the Customs Broker charges any amount more than Rs.10,000/-, then he will not be considered as a pure agent for the services of transport and the value of transport service will be included in the value of his Customs Broker service.

EXCLUSION FROM VALUE

Expenditure incurred as pure agent becomes relevant, when it comes to determining the value of a supply for levy of GST. The preceding para explains who will be considered as a pure agent.The valuation rules provide that expenditure incurred as pure agent, will be excluded from the value of supply, and thus also from aggregate turnover. However, such exclusion of expenditure incurred as pure agent is possible only and only if all the conditions required to be considered as a pure agent and further conditions stipulated in the rules are satisfied by the supplier in each case.

The supplier would have to satisfy the following conditions (in addition to the condition required to be satisfied to be considered as a pure agent)for exclusion from value:

(i) The supplier acts as a pure agent of the recipient of the supply, when he makes payment to the third party on authorization by such recipient

(ii) The payment made by the pure agent on behalf of the recipient of supply has been separately indicated in the invoice issued by the pure agent to the recipient of service

(iii) The supplies procured by the pure agent from the third party as a pure agent of the recipient of supply are in addition to the services he supplies on his own account

In case the conditions are not satisfied, such expenditure incurred shall be included in the value of supply under GST.

The following illustration will make the concept clearer:

• Corporate services firm A is engaged to handle the legal work pertaining to the incorporation of Company B

• Other than its service fees, A also recovers from B, registration fee and approval fee for the name of the company paid to Registrar of the Companies

• The fees charged by the Registrar of the Companies registration and approval of the name are compulsorily levied on B

• A is merely acting as a pure agent in the payment of those fees.

• Therefore, A’s recovery of such expenses is a disbursement and not part of the value of supply made by A to B.

Some examples of pure agent are:

1. Port fees, Port charges, Custom duty, dock dues, transport charges etc. paid by Customs Broker on behalf of owner of goods.

2. Expenses incurred by C&F agent and reimbursed by principal such as freight, godown charges.

Illustration:

Suppose a Customs Broker issues an invoice for reimbursement of a few expenses and for consideration towards agency service rendered to an importer. The amounts charged by the Customs Broker are as below:

Pure Agent Concept in GST

In the above situation, agency income and travelling/ hotel expenses shall be added for determining the value of supply by the Customs Broker whereas Docks dues and the Customs Duty shall not be added to the value, provided the conditions of pure agent are satisfied.

CONCLUSION

A pure agent concept is an important one for businesses as it has direct implications on the value of taxable service. It has direct bearing on the amount of GST charged on a particular supply. It also has bearing on the aggregate turnover of the supplier and therefore on calculating the threshold limit for registration. Whenever the intention is to act as a pure agent, care should be taken to ensure that the conditions specified for such pure agents and further conditions given in the valuation rules are also met so that only the real value of the service provided is subjected to GST.

New Draft Rules for issue of PAN Card released by CBDT

Summary : As per New Draft Rules In case no option is provided then PAN card will be issued with father’s name except in case where father’s name is not furnished and mother is the single parent. In such cases mother’s name
will be printed on PAN card

F.No. 370142/40/2016-TPL (Part-I)
Government of India
Ministry of Finance
Department of Revenue
(Central Board of Direct Taxes)

New Delhi, Dated August 31, 2018

Subject: Draft notification proposing amendments in rule 114 of the Income-tax Rules, 1962
and permanent account number application Forms (Form 49A and Form 49AA)-reg.

Rule 114 of the Income-tax Rules, 1962(the Rules) inter alia provides that an application for
the allotment of permanent account number (PAN) shall be made in Form No.49A (in case of
Indian citizens/Indian companies/Entities incorporated in India/Unincorporated entities formed in
India) or 49AA (In case of individuals not being a citizen of India/entities incorporated outside
India/Unincorporated entities formed outside India). At present, providing Father’s name in the
PAN application Forms (Form No.49A and Form No.49AA) is mandatory, however, the applicant
has been given an option to select name of either father or mother, which the applicant may like to
be printed on PAN card. In order to provide that father’s name shall not be mandatory in PAN
application Forms, where mother is the single parent, an amendment in PAN application Forms is
proposed to provide that mentioning father’s name in the aforementioned Forms shall not be
mandatory except in cases where mother is the single parent and mentioning mother’s name shall be
mandatory in cases where father’s name is not furnished and mother is the single parent.

2. Vide Finance Act, 2018 section 139A of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (the Act) has been
amended to provide for allotment of PAN to every person being a resident, other than an individual,
which enters into a financial transaction of an amount aggregating to two lakh fifty thousand rupees
or more in a financial year; and to the managing director, director, partner, trustee, author, founder,
karta, chief executive officer, principal officer or office bearer or any person competent to act on
behalf of such person. However, corresponding rule 114 of the Rules does not provide the time line
by which such person may apply for PAN allotment. Therefore, rule 114 of the Rules is proposed to
be amended to provide time line by which a person referred to clause (v) and clause (vi) of subsection
(1) of section 139A of the Act may apply for PAN allotment.

3. Further, vide Finance Act, 2018, clause (c) of Explanation to section (8) of section 139A of
the Act has been amended to provide that “permanent account number under the new series” means
a permanent account number having ten alphanumeric characters. Since, the said section earlier
provided that the PAN shall be issued in the form of a laminated card, an amendment in rule 114 of
the Rules is proposed to empower Principal Director General/Director General of Income Tax
(Systems) to specify the manner in which PAN shall be issued.

4. In view of the above, it is proposed to amend the Income-tax Rules, 1962 so as to make
necessary amendments in rule 114 of the Rules and PAN application Forms (Form No.49A and
49AA).

5. The draft proposal is as under:
“2. In the Income-tax Rules, 1962:__
“(I) in rule 114, in sub-rule (3), after clause (iv), following clauses shall be inserted, namely: __

immediately following the financial year in which such transaction is entered into;
(vi) in the case of a person, who is the managing director, director, partner, trustee, author, founder,
karta, chief executive officer, principal officer or office bearer of the person referred to in clause (v)
or any person competent to act on behalf of the person referred to in clause (v) and who has not
been allotted any permanent account number, on or before the 31st day of May, immediately
