Dear All,

The matter is very urgent. Please advise , in case of construction contracts, whether service tax is payable on Liquidated Damages (LD) also. LD refers to a contractual penalty which the contractor has to pay for delay in executing a specific part of the project.

Let us take an example. Mr. X, a contractor, is executing a housing project. As per the contract agreement, the first floor of the building should be completed within 3 months of the contract, otherwise, Mr. X will have to pay LD of 10% of the contract price. Mr. X could construct 1st floor only within 5 months. In this case, the Running Bill of Mr. X for construction upto Ist floor of Rs. 10 lacs was raised to Contractee and the contractee deducted 10% from the contract price i.e. Rs. 1 lac (being 10% of contract price) and paid Rs. 9 lacs to Mr. X. Now, should Mr. X pay Service tax on Rs. 10 lacs or on Rs. 9 lacs.

Please answer this query on priority basis quoting the relevant rule or regulation or court judgment.

A has sold his residential house and earned capital gains of Rs 50Lacs. He has been able to identify 2 Flats, one at Mumbai and the other at Pune, so that his entire capital gains can get exempted u/s 54. However his CA is of the view that investment in two properties may jeopardize his claim u/s 54F.
Mr A seek your advise.
If instead of capital gains arising out of the sale of residential house, the capital gains arising due to the sale of urban land and the claim is made u/s 54F, would the position be different.

Direct Tax

A Company received Rs. 1 Crore as compentation for cancelling a Sale Agreement pertaining to acquisition of land. Is that receipt of Rs. 1 Crore to be shwon as revenue in the P/ L account or can it be treated as deferred income and taken to the P/ L Account for a period of next 4 years commencing from A. Y. 2008- 2009.
What are the Tax implications and is there any Tax Rebate available for that?

Please note that the property was never acquired by the Company, hence, there was no transfer of Capital Assets and Sec. 51 is is not applicable.
