FINAL REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE CONSTITUTED FOR FORMULATING ACCOUNTING STANDARDS FOR THE PURPOSES OF NOTIFICATION UNDER SECTION 145(2) OF THE INCOME-TAX ACT, 1961

PRESS RELEASE, DATED 26-10-2012

Section 145(1) of the Income-tax Act, 1961 ('the Act') provides that the income chargeable under the head "Profits and gains of business or profession" or "Income from other sources" shall [subject to the provisions of sub-section (2)] be computed in accordance with either cash or mercantile system of accounting regularly employed by the assessee. Section 145 (2) provides that the Central Government may notify Accounting Standards ('AS') for any class of assessees or for any class of income.

2. The Central Board of Direct Taxes ('CBDT') constituted a Committee comprising of departmental officers and professionals in December, 2010 to inter alia suggest AS for the purposes of notification under section 145(2)of the Act.

3. The Committee submitted its first Interim Report in August 2011. A discussion paper containing the main recommendations of the Committee was issued in October, 2011 for inviting comments/suggestions from all stakeholders.

4. The Committee has submitted its Final Report in August, 2012. The Committee recommended that the AS notified under the Act should be made applicable only to the computation of taxable income and a taxpayer would not be required to maintain books of account on the basis of AS notified under the Act. The Committee examined all the 31 AS issued by the ICAI and recommended notification of AS on 14 issues under the Act and formulated drafts of AS on these issues. The Committee has termed them as "Tax Accounting Standards" (TAS) to distinguish from the AS issued by the ICAI/notified under the Companies Act, 1956.

MCA on XBRL

Press Information Bureau
Government of India
Ministry of Corporate Affairs

19-October-2012 17:59 IST

Quality of xBRL Filing Certified by Professional Members

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs has pressed upon for the need to improve the quality of xBRL (Extensible Business Reporting Language) filings. In a letter sent to the Presidents of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) and the Institute of Company Secretary in India (ICSI) the ministry said it is the bounden duty of these institutes to improve the quality of XBRL filing for the financial year (FY) 2011-12 to be undertaken by its members. Further, the Institute may conduct further trainings, issue guidelines, etc so that such quality related issues are appropriately resolved.

As per the letter a random scrutiny of XBRL filing of financial statements by few companies to MCA for FY 2010-11 reveals significant variations in disclosures in published results and the xBRL filing due to 'incorrect' mapping of disclosures. It has been observed that few disclosures were 'mapped/ tagged' with incorrect accounting concept despite availability of appropriate element in taxonomy. It has also been observed that provisions of "Block Text tagging" and/ or "Footnote" have been inappropriately used to report disclosures like subsidiary details, related party transactions, Director's Report, etc. even when appropriate elements were available in the taxonomy for such disclosures.

Moreover, Such filing are inaccurate and do not adequately represent true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company as per Section 211 of the Companies Act, 1956. Such XBRL filing, apart from being misleading, also dilute the effectiveness of XBRL, for stakeholders' usage relating to the companies. It is unfortunate that professionals have certified the authenticity of such incorrect date, for which they are liable to be penalized. Such lapses defeat the very purpose of introducing XBRL filing which are meant to elicit more detailed and refined information as to the affairs of companies. Please note that XBRL filing are being minutely scrutinized to see if similar mistakes also appear in a larger sample.

It is note worthy that xBRL filing of financial statements by a select class of companies for FY 2010-11 was mandated vide Ministry of Corporate Affairs Notification GSR No: 748(E) dated 05.10.2011. The e-forms were duly certified by CA/CS/CWA professionals for their completeness and correctness in representation with respect to audited financial statement of the company.

CBDT ON ARREAR DEMAND GRIEVANCES

Dear Members,

 CBDTs letter on Resolving All Arrear Demand Grievances

Please Click here to Download - 975-demand_grievance_CBDT.pdf

CIRCULAR NO. 9/2012 [F. NO. 275/11/2012-IT(B)], DATED 17-10-2012

SECTION 194C OF THE INCOME-TAX ACT, 1961 - DEDUCTION OF TAX AT SOURCE - PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTORS & SUB-CONTRACTORS - DEDUCTION OF TAX AT SOURCE ON PAYMENT OF GAS TRANSPORTATION CHARGES BY THE PURCHASER OF NATURAL GAS TO THE SELLER OF GAS

CIRCULAR NO. 9/2012 [F. NO. 275/11/2012-IT(B)], DATED 17-10-2012

Representations have been received from various sections of the Industry on the difficulties faced in the matter of Tax Deduction at Source on Gas Transportation Charges paid by the purchasers of Natural gas to the sellers of gas.

2. The Hon'ble Gujarat High Court in the case of CIT (TDS) v. Krishak Bharati Cooperative Limited in Tax Appeal No. 618 of 2010 videorder dated 12-7-2011, has held that the question as to whether payment of Gas Transportation Charges by the purchasers of Natural gas to the Gas Distribution Companies is covered under the provision of Chapter XVII-B of Income-tax Act, 1961 (the Act) or not, can be ascertained only on the basis of the terms of agreement between the Gas Distributing Company and the purchaser of the Natural gas. In the operative part of the order, the Hon'ble Court says that in the facts of the abovementioned case, the agreement is for purchase and sale of gas. Transportation of gas is only a part of the entire sale transaction. Laying down the pipeline and supplying gas through such pipeline were the steps taken in furtherance of such a contract. There was a clear understanding of the parties that the ownership of gas would pass on to the buyer at the delivery point which clearly shows that transport of gas by the seller was a step towards execution of contract for sale of gas and there was no contract for carriage of goods. The Court added that Transportation of gas was only in furtherance of contract for sale of gas. The Hon'ble High Court then decided that in such a case the supply of gas is under a 'contract for sale' and not under a 'works contract' as envisaged under section 194C of the Act and hence in such a case TDS provisions are not applicable.

3. The matter has been examined by the Board. The main stakeholders in this Industry are the - Owners/Sellers of the gas (which could be a Gas Distribution Company); Transporters of gas (which could be the Owners/Sellers of the gas or a third party/parties) and the purchasers/ end-users of the gas. The Owner/Seller of the gas may transfer the ownership of the gas to the purchaser either at the point of delivery at the premises of the purchaser or at any intermediate point.

4. It is clarified that in case the Owner/Seller of the gas sells as well as transports the gas to the purchaser till the point of delivery, where the ownership of gas to the purchaser is simultaneously transferred, the manner of raising the sale bill (whether the transportation charges are embedded in the cost of gas or shown separately) does not alter the basic nature of such contract which remains essentially a 'contract for sale' and not a 'works contract' as envisaged in section 194C of the Act. Hence in such circumstances, provisions of Chapter XVII-B of the Act are not applicable on the component of Gas Transportation Charges paid by the purchaser to the Owner/Seller of the gas. The use of different modes of transportation of gas by Owner/Seller will not alter the position.

5. It is needless to mention that transportation charges paid to a third party transporter of gas, either by the Owner/Seller of the gas or purchaser of the gas or any other person, shall continue to be governed by the appropriate provisions of the Act and TDS shall be deductible on such payment to the third party at the applicable rates.
