21 January 2015 The Income of a charitable Trust was computed by taking into consideration:
Total receipts as per Income & Expenditure Account ----------- xxx
Less : Application of Income—Total debits of Income & Expenditure Account xxx
Surplus was filed as Return of income

Now the ITO has considered total receipts as Taxable Income without allowing
Any application of Income and demanded tax on the same.

What is the remedy?

21 January 2015 Assessing Officer should allow the expenditure on the objects of the trusts irrespective of the fact whether or not you have 12A registration.

21 January 2015 It is not a business expenditure for earning profit which will be allowed by AO. It is application of income/donations on the charitable objects which is allowed only on 12AA registered charitable trusts.
