Dear Sir,
Can any one reduce his tax burdan through trust and will.

The Circular dated 6th June 2007 clearly says that Certification Fees @ 12% of the Basic Audit Fee is payable to Branch Auditors.Banks are now taking a view that this fee is payable only to the Statutory Central Auditors and not to the Branch Auditors which is very unjust.Please air your views

In case of capitalistaion of asset can we exclude any amount of penalty charged on contractor in case of a project.
Plz give ans. with refrence of Para no. of AS-10.
Reply in detail.
Penaly is being imposed due to late completion of project.

Kindly clear my doubts about following :

1. In a collaboration agreement with builder , an advance is received by the party before the execution under the agreement. If contract is not executed by the builder and advance is forfeited, what will be the treatment of advance received by the party.Will it be a capital receipt- not taxable or revenue receipt taxable in the hands of party? If the contract is given to some other party subsequently , will it change character of the advance received from the earlier builder ?

2.A security deposit is received from the tenant with a condition that landlord will construct a floor in the market place on his building and let it out to him for a period of at least 3 years on a particular monthly rent.On completion of floor, the tenant does not take the possession and security deposit is forfeited and building is let out to some other party after some time . What will the treatment of security deposit forfeited ?

Pl any body can suggest me relating taking addimmission in International CFA.

APPRECIATE YOUR SUGGESTION AND GUIDANCE.

I started the a marketing consultancy company in 1999 after leaving the job.
Since I was trying for a job I started in the name of my wife, not knowing the tax implications.
Through it I was earning approx. 2.5 to 3.0 lacs pa. from 1999 to 2004.
In 2004, I closed it.
Now I have received a summons witness from the department stating that the company has not paid any service tax in 2002-2003, 2003-2004, 2004-2005, 2005-2006 and 2006-2007.
I agree I have not paid service tax since I was not knowing about the taxation issue then. Also I have not collected any service tax.

Now,

a] What will be its implication?

b] Was it mandatory then and what was the limit and service tax structure?

c] What should I do to be least penalised in the matter?

Awaiting your guidance please since I have a date with the deprtment on 14th August 2007. My books are all audited and income tax paid.

Sincerely,

Niiev.
