04 May 2010 The same will be taxable in the hands of Mr A as dividend income since the same is not subject to Corporate Dividend Tax in the hands of the company (X Ltd) to the extent the company possesses accumulated profits.
No, since as per explanation 3 to the aforesaid section reads as follows:
"concern means a Hindu undivided family, or a firm or an association of persons or a body of individuals or a company

It does no make any difference as to whether A is a company since the section mentions the word "being a person who is the beneficial owner of shares" and as per section 2(31) person includes a company.
