IT Appeal Nos. 1870 of 2013 and others, JULY 4, 2014Commissioner of INCOME TAX9v.Impact Containers (P.) Ltd.

Law:

Section:

JUDGMENT 1. In these Appeals which have been filed by the Revenue, the challenge is to the order of the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal holding that the provisions of Section 2(22)(e) of the Income Tax Act,1961(for short "I. T. Act) cannot be invoked as the assessee company was not a shareholder in the lending company. The argument in all these Appeals on behalf of the Revenue is that, though the assessee is a common shareholder with controlling stake in the lending company, the Tribunal found that Section 2(22)(e) of the I.T.

(supra) because the Revenue wants to urge that the view taken in the Universal Medicare's case requires reconsideration. 4. Since this was the request coming from the Revenue in all Appeals, we decided with the consent of the Revenue to place these matters on a single working day so that on this limited point we can hear the counsel appearing for the Revenue and equally that of the assessee. It is admitted position that if we hold that the judgment in the case of Universal Medicare (P.) Ltd. (supra) does not require reconsideration, then, the individual appeals have to be decided against the Revenue by upholding the view taken by the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal. 5. It is on this footing that the matters were placed today. 6. Mr. Gupta, learned Senior Counsel appearing on behalf of the Revenue would submit that insofar as the facts in Income Tax Appeal No. 114 of 2012 are concerned,…
