My query is regarding suspicious transactions that a bank has to report on weekly basis. if a person has withdrawn about 120 lacs in cash in about 7 transactions from his saving account, which is new a/c about 3 months old.He also has same sort of deposits and there are similar trasactions other than in cash. Should this type of a/c be reported in the STR.

One of our company director is going to Hongkong for training on a particular machine for which we need to pay an amount of 500 Euro to a German company. Is TDS required to be deducted from the remitance of 500 Euro to that german company under Sec195 of the income tax act.

I recently bought a independent house. The total cost of the project is 50Lacs, and the breakup is as follows:

Plot Value=9,33,000

Cost of construction=40,67,000 (Gross Value)

The builder is charging me Service Tax @ 4.12% on (40,67,000)=1,67,560/- (Compounded Rate). Why cant he charge at Normal Rate i.e. @ 12.36% on (33%*4067000)=12.36%(1342110)=1,65,884/-. The difference between Normal Rate and Compounded Rate being 1,676/-. Not that its a huge amount, but for my clarification. Would someone shed some light on this ?

Coming to the Main point, the builder is charging me VAT on (GrossValue+ST) as follows:

4%(4067000+167560)=4%(4234560)=1,69,382/-

Is the above calculation correct??? I was under the impression that VAT @ 4% is calculated on Gross Value only, but the builder is including the ST component in this calculation.

So which calculation is right? VAT@4%(GrossValue) or VAT@4%(GrossValue+ST)?

The difference between 4%(GrossValue) and 4%(Grossvalue+ST) is working out to Rs.6702/-. Hence I need the clarification. So can anyone enlighten me on this issue??

Thanks.

Can Capital gain or Loss arise in case of Transfer of Land (Capital Assets) in exchage of another land?

Dear Friends,

One of our client had received some cash loans which could not be proved up to the satisfaction of the Assessing Officer. The same was added back with returned income and the assessee paid the demand raised. Now the question is what to do with the outstanding amount in Loan creditors account. Can the assessee transfer the amount added with the income to his Capital Account. There should not be further tax liability. Your views please.
