26 September 2012 In case of a Charitable/ religious trust if it is purchasing stones for building temple (let me specify, not for any business) by paying cash above 20,000/- whether such trust will come under the ambit of section 40A(3).

Here i want to specify that building of temple is not an expense of revenue nature.

26 September 2012 40A(3) disallowance is for computing income under the head 'income from business or profession' whereas the income of a charitable trust generally, if not doing any business, is computed under 'income from other sources' for which the referred section need not be looked into.

Trust will also have ownership on some flats of such block. If trust want to sell those flats whether it will attract tax or not
