CIDCO EMPLOYEES CO-OP. CREDIT SOCIETY,MUMBAI vs. ITO, WARD-28(1)(3), MUMBAI
What did the Tribunal hold?
The Tribunal, respectfully following the decisions of coordinate benches and various High Courts, held that the assessee is entitled to claim deduction under Section 80P. The assessee is a cooperative society providing credit facilities to its members and not a co-operative bank as defined under Section 80P(4).
What were the facts?
The assessee, a cooperative credit society, claimed deductions under Section 80P of the Income Tax Act. The Assessing Officer (AO) and the CIT(A) rejected the claim for lack of substantiating documents and because the society was allegedly a 'co-operative bank' hit by Section 80P(4). The case was reopened after the initial assessment accepted the income as 'Nil'.
What were the issues?
Whether the assessee, a cooperative credit society, is eligible for deduction under Section 80P, and if Section 80P(4) disallows such deduction for cooperative banks.
Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?
Section 80P,Section 80P(2)(d),Section 80P(2)(a)(i),Section 80P(4),Section 143(3),Section 148,Section 234B,Section 234C,Section 271(1)(c)
