Jalgaon District Central Co-Operative Bank Ltd. v. Union of India

265 ITR 423High Court2004#2445 most cited

What is Jalgaon District Central Co-Operative Bank Ltd. v. Union of India authority for?

A CBDT circular restricting the definition of "member" under Section 194A(3)(v) to exclude nominal, associate, or sympathizer members of a co-operative society is invalid. Such a circular conflicts with the provisions of the Act and exceeds the powers granted to the CBDT under Section 119, meaning co-operative banks are not liable to deduct tax at source on interest paid to these members.
