After studying Tax, a qs. Comes to mind that whether tax system abroad is also complicated like the indian? Does all the country have tax system? I have heared that few countries don't levy tax. Then how do they manage economy?

Dear Experts,

A public limited company has come up with a 6 years Discount scheme for selling his product and increasing sales under which:

1. In the first year if a customer buys Rs. 75000 product then he is getting a Discount Coupon of full amount of Rs. 75000 which is redeemable in 6 years.

2. The scheme is - if customer comes after 1 year from the date of purchasing and surrendering the Discount coupon then he is getting product worth 10% of the Purchased amount.
But if he comes in the 2nd year then 20% and so on. In the 6th Year he is getting product worth 100% of the purchased amount.

Customer can surrender only 1 time and it is upon him when he is going to surrender his discount coupon. If the customer is not appearing in the 6th year then his coupon will lapse, so anyhow the customer will have to surrender in 6th year.

Question:

1. When we are going to treat this Discount, at the time of purchase? If the answer is yes then there will be huge loss in the books? If the answer is NO then there will be huge profit at the time of Sale. Please advice?

Dear fellow brothers/sisters,
A firm has taken over a proprietorship business including debtors, creditors, secured and unsecured loans (exceeding Rs.20000) and other assets and liabilities. The firm has not "accepted" any loans form lenders of ex-proprietorship business, directly.It has only "acknowledged" the loan liability and provided / paid interest to them. The firm has passed journal entry crediting lenders a/c and debiting proprietor a/c. (being loan liability of proprietor taken over)
1) Whether this transaction is hit by sec.269ss? 2) Is it necessary to report the details of lenders in 3cd clause 24. if yes how?- if we report these loans as accepted otherwise than a/c payee chq/dd, penalty u/s 271e and other litigation would follow, though u/s 273b penalty may not be sustained 3)reporting in 3cd clause 24,is not required as it is not accepted but only acknowledged? please give your valued suggestions to avoid appeals, if possible with case laws, Thanks.
