ACIT, CIRCLE- 29(1), NEW DELHI vs. THATAI CONSULTANCY SERVICES LLP, NEW DELHI
What did the Tribunal hold?
The Tribunal held that the property was purchased as bare office space and the licensee was responsible for all fit-out works. Therefore, the income was rental income from house property, taxable under Section 22, and the CIT(A) correctly allowed interest expenses and partly deleted the addition.
What were the facts?
The assessee purchased a commercial property and rented it out. The Assessing Officer (AO) treated the rental income as composite rent and invoked Section 56(2)(iii), disallowing deductions for interest expenses and standard deductions. The CIT(A) partly allowed the assessee's appeal.
What were the issues?
Whether the rental income from a commercial property is to be treated as composite rent under Section 56(2)(iii) or as income from house property under Section 22, and whether deductions for interest and standard deductions are allowable.
Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?
