BEFORE GOING FURTHER, WE DEEMED IT NECESSARY TO ADVERT THE FINDING OF THE CIT(A) ON RECORD: - 6. I HAVE CONSIDERED THE FACTS OF THE CASE AND SUBMISSIONS MADE BY THE ASSESSEE. THE ASSESSE CONVERTED THE CAPITAL INTO STOCK IN TRADE, THE ASSESSING OFFICER INVOKED THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 45(2) AND TREATED THE PROFIT IN SELLING THE CRANES AS STCG. IN THIS CONNECTION IT IS NECESSARY TO SEE THE PROVISIONS OF SUB - SECTION (2) OF SECTION 45. THE SUB - SECTION READS AS UNDER: ITA. NO. 3154 /M/201 3 A.Y. 2009 - 10 5 NOTWI THSTANDING ANYTHING CONTAINED IN SUB - SECTION(1), THE PROFITS OR GAINS ARISING FROM THE TRANSFER BY WAY OF CONVERSION BY THE OWNER OF CAPITAL ASSET INTO, OR ITS TREATMENT BY HIM AS, STOCK - IN - TRADE OF A BUSINESS CARRIED ON BY HIM SHALL BE CHARGEABLE TO INCOM E TAX AS HIS INCOME OF THE PREVIOUS YEAR IN WHICH SUCH STOCK - IN - TRADE IS SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED BY HIM AND, FOR THE PURPOSES OF SECTION 48, THE FAIR MARKET VALUE OF THE ASSET ON THE DATE OF SUCH CONVERSION OR TREATMEN . THE PROVISIONS START WITH A NON - OBSTINATE CLAUSE, STIPULATING THAT ANY CONVERSION OF CAPITAL ASSET INTO STOCK IN TRADE SHALL BE TREATED AS CAPITAL GAIN? THE YEAR IN WHICH THE SAME IS SOLD. IT IS CLEAR FROM SECTION 45(2) THAT TRANSFER CONVERSION OF CAPITAL ASSET IN TO STOCK - IN - TRADE WILL BE TREATED UNDER CAPITAL GAIN AND LIABILITY ARISES IN THE YEAR IN WHICH THE STOCK IN TRADE AFTER CONVERSION IS IN THIS CASE ADMITTEDLY THE ASSESSEE CONVERTED THE FIXED ASSETS HELD IN THE FORM CRANES INTO STOCK - IN - TRADE IN THE RELEVANT ASSESSMENT YEAR AND THESE CRANES THE BOOK VALUE OF RS.2,36,94,981/ - AND VALUED AT THE SAME FIGURE RS.2,86,94,981/ - AT THE TIME OF CONVERSION. THE BOOK VALUE AS ON 31/03/Z (W.D.V.) WAS RS,2,80,94,981/ - THE CONVERSION DATE WAS 01/04/2008 (FMV; RS.2,86 R 94,981/ - . THUS THE CONVERSION OF ASSETS INTO STOCK - IN - TRADE DID NOT RE IN ANY PROFIT. THE ASSESSEE DURING THE PREVIOUS YEAR RELEVANT TO THE ASSESSMENT YEAR SOLD THE STOCK - IN - TRADE WHICH WAS CONVERTED AFTER FEW MONTHS FROM THE OF CONVERSION. THE ASSESSING O FFICER TREATED THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PURCHASE AND SALE PRICE AS CAPITAL GAIN. THE ASSESSING OFFICER IN THE ASSESSMENT ORDER FINDING THAT THE CRANES WERE SOLD WITHIN 3 - 4 MONTHS FROM THE DATE OF CONVERT AND ASKED THE AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE WHY THE SALE P RICE SHOULD NOT BE AS FMV. FOR THIS FINDING, THE ASSESSES AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE AGREED DI_ THE ASSESSMENT PROCEEDINGS. THE ASSESSING OFFICER, THUS, TAKEN W.D.V. AS BOOKS AND SALE PRICE AS FMV AND TREATED THE DIFFERENCE AS SHORT TERM CA GAINS. THE ASSES SING OFFICER THOUGH NOT CORRECT AS FAR AS COMPUTATION OF CA GAIN IS CONCERNED, IN VIEW OF THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES OF THE CASE HE TREATMENT SALE PRICE AS FMV AS THERE WAS NO INFORMATION SUBMITTED BY THE ASSESSEE ASSESSMENT PROCEEDINGS. THE ASSESSEE ON T HE OTHER HAND SUBMITTED THAT TREATMENT GIVEN BY THE ASSESSING OFFICER AS STCG DOES NOT ALTER THE TAXABILITY THE IMPACT IS NIL. HE SUBMITTED THE METHODS OR COMPUTATION UNDER CAPITAL GAIN BUSINESS INCOME. IT IS SEEN THAT ITA. NO. 3154 /M/201 3 A.Y. 2009 - 10 6 THE ASSESSES COMPUTATION OR TREATMENT OF DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FMV AT THE TIME OF CONVERSION AND SALE PRICE AS BUSINESS TO BE CORRECT.

ON APPRAISAL OF THE ABOVE SAID FINDING, WE NOWHERE NOTICED THAT ILLEGALITY AND IRREGULARITY IN THE AB OVE MENTIONED ORDER IN VIEW OF THE FINDING OF THE CIT(A). WE NOTICED THAT THE ASSESSEE HAS CONVERTED THE CRANES INTO STOCK IN TRADE A ND THE DEPRECIATION WAS ALLOWED AND CONVERSION VALUE OF WAS TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION AND THE SALE AMOUNT WAS ALSO TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION. THEREAFTER THE AO ASSESSED THE INCOME OF THE ASSESSEE UNDER THE HEAD OF PROFIT AND GAINS OF BUSINESS OR PROFESSION. THE ASSESSEE DID NOT APPEAR BEFORE US TO DISTIN GUISH THE FINDING OF THE CIT(A). N O MATERIAL OF ANY KIND HAS BEEN PRODUCED BEFORE US TO WHICH IT CAN BE ASSUMED THAT THE FINDING OF THE CIT(A) IS NOT JUSTIFIABLE. THEREFORE, IN THE SAID CIRCUMSTANCES, WE AFFIR MED THE FINDING OF THE CIT(A) ON THIS ISSUE AND DECIDE THIS ISSUE IN FAVOUR OF THE REVENUE AGAINST THE ASSESSEE. I SSUE NO 3 : - 6 . UNDER THIS ISSUE THE ASSESSEE HAS CHALLENGED THE CONFIRMATION OF THE ENHANCEMENT OF PROFIT OF GAINS FROM BUSINESS BY RS.27,20,989/ - IN RELATION TO CWIP CONVERTED INTO STOCK IN TRADE. THE RELEVANT FINDING ITA. NO. 3154 /M/201 3 A.Y. 2009 - 10 7 HAS BEEN GIVEN IN PARA NO. 16, 17 & 18 WHICH IS HERE BY REPRODUCED BELOW: - 16. I HAVE CONSIDERED THE SUBMISSIONS MADE BY THE ASSESSEE IN RESPONSE TO ENHANCEMENT PROPOSAL MADE BY ME. THE ASSESSEE CONTENDED THAT THE SALE VALUE CANNOT BE TAKEN AS FMV FOR THE PURPOSE OF 45(2). FOR THE REASONS GIVEN IN THE DECI SION FOR GROUND NO.1 BY ME, THE SALE VALUE IS NOT TREATED AS FMV AND ASSESSING OFFICER'S STAND OF ASSESSING THE SAME IS NOT FOUND TO BE CORRECT. FURTHER, THE PURCHASE COST OF RS.39,08,95L/ - OF ONE CRANE WHICH WAS MISSED DURING THE ASSESSMENT PROCEEDINGS HA S ALSO BEEN CONSIDERED FOR ARRIVING AT THE FMV THE ASSESSES SUBMITTED THAT THIS VALUE HAS BEEN REFLECTED IN THE CLOSING STOCK HENCE, THERE IS NO EFFECT. AS THIS VALUE OF THE CRANE IS ALSO TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION FOR ARRIVING AT CAPITAL LOSS AND BUSINESS I NCOME WHILE DECIDING THE GROUND NO.1 THE INCOME IS NOT COMPUTED SEPARATELY. HOWEVER, IN THE FIRST GROUP OF CRANES, THE BUSINESS INCOME HAS BEEN ENHANCED BY RS.27,20,989/ - . THE DETAILED REASON FOR THE ENHANCEMENT IS GIVEN IN THE DECISION TO GROUND NO, 1. 17. AS REGARDS, SECOND ISSUE OF THE CAPITAL WORK IN PROGRESS CONVERTED INTO STOCK - IN - TRADE, THE ASSESSING OFFICER ASSESSED THE CRANES U/S,S9B, AFTER APPRECIATING THE FACTS, SUBMISSIONS MADE BY THE ASSESSEE AND AFTER CAREFULLY EXAMINING THE BALANCE SHEET AN D PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT FOR THE INSTANT ASSESSMENT YEAR AND ALSO IMMEDIATE PRECEDING ASSESSMENT YEAR, IT IS DECIDED, WHILE ADJUDICATING GROUND NO,3, THAT THE AMOUNT OF RS,5 R 93,79,789/ - CANNOT BE ASSESSED U/S.69B OF THE I.T ACT AND THE SAME HAS TO BE DELE TED. CONSEQUENTLY, THE IS OF SECTION 45(2) ARE ATTRACTED SINCE THE ASSESSEE CONVERTED THESE CRANES TRADE. THE ASSESSEE IN HIS REPLY FOR ENHANCEMENT PROPOSAL SUBMITTED THAT THE CRANES WERE REPAIRED, REFURBISHED ETC, AND THE SALE PRICE SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN AS FMV AS ON THE DATE OF CONVERSION. THE SUBMISSION OF THE ASSESSEE IS CONSIDERED AND FOR THE REASONS MENTIONED IN THE DECISION TO GR.NO.L IN THE PRE - PARAS IN THIS GROUP OF CRANES ALSO THE SALE PRICE IS NOT TO BE TREATED AS FMV. 18. THEN, WHAT SHOULD BE THE VALUE (FMV) AS ON CONVERSION. IN THIS GROUP OF CRANES UNLIKE THE FIRST GROUP OF CRANES MENTIONED IN GROUND NO, L, DURING THE F,Y.2007 - 08 RELEVANT TO A.Y 2003 - 09 THE ASSESSES MADE IMPROVEMENTS BY REPAIRING THE CRANES INCURRING AN EXPENDITURE OF RS.32,S2,570 / - AND ARRIVED AT THE FIGURE OF RS,S,93,79,788/ - , THEREFORE, WHEN ADDITION IS MADE TO THE CRANES UNLIKE THE FIRST GROUP OF CRANES, IT CANNOT BE SAID THAT THE VALUE ITA. NO. 3154 /M/201 3 A.Y. 2009 - 10 8 WOULD DEPRECIATE. THEREFORE, THE COST AS AT 31/03/2008 SHOULD BE TAKEN AS CONVERSION VALUE ( FMV) EXCEPT IN RESPECT OF ONE CRANE MENTIONED BELOW AT SR.NO.8 WHERE NO ADDITIONS BY WAY OF REPAIRS HAVE BEEN MADE. HENCE, A POSSIBLE DEPRECIATED VALUE IS TAKEN AFTER REDUCING 7,5% OF RS,33,44 R 431/ - I.E. RS.2,50,823/ - FROM THE COST PRICE OF THIS CRANE TO A RRIVE AT THE FMV ON CONVERSION.
