NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF BANK MANAGEMENT,MUMBAI vs. ASSESSING OFFICER, NATIONAL FACELESS CENTRE, DELHI
What did the Tribunal hold?
The Tribunal followed a coordinate bench's decision in the assessee's own case for earlier years, holding that the assessee is an educational institute and the proviso to Section 2(15) does not apply. The Tribunal also directed the AO to examine the Section 10(23C) approval and compute income under Section 11.
What were the facts?
The assessee, a trust registered under Section 12A and approved under Section 10(23C)(iv), claimed exemption under Section 11. The Assessing Officer denied exemption, holding the proviso to Section 2(15) applicable. The CIT(A) allowed exemption under Section 11, but dismissed the claim under Section 10(23C). Both parties appealed.
What were the issues?
Whether the assessee is engaged in an activity of general public utility to which the proviso to Section 2(15) applies, and whether it is eligible for exemption under Section 10(23C).
Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?
