ACIT v. Ahmedabad Urban Development Authority

143 Taxmann.com 278Supreme Court of India2022#190 most cited

What is ACIT v. Ahmedabad Urban Development Authority authority for?

If activities for the advancement of general public utility are carried on as a business, income from such activities is not exempt under Section 11, even if the profits are utilized for the main charitable object. The argument that profits from general public utility activities can be ploughed back to charity to maintain exemption is not a good law.
