Is 'equipment lost in hole' included in the gross revenue for computation of profits u/s 44BB of the IT Act?


Quick Summary
This case examines whether the amount received by a company for 'equipment lost in hole' should be included in its gross revenue when calculating profits under Section 44BB of the Income Tax Act. The revenue argued it was a reimbursement of expenses and should be included, while the assessee relied on previous rulings. The tribunal considered whether Section 44BB, as a self-contained code, distinguishes between revenue and capital receipts.

Court :

Brief :
This appeal by the revenue is preferred against the order of the CIT(A)-2, Noida dated 31.10.2016 pertaining to A.Y. 2012-13.
