Mergers and Acquistion - 72A


30 June 2011 Is it compulsory for the purpose of 72A, that both Amalgamated as well as Amalgamating Company has to be an Industrial Undertaking or any one will do?

30 June 2011 The prime condition for claiming set-off under section 72A is that the company amalgamating must be owning an ‘industrial undertaking’ or a ship or a hotel.REFER TO Asstt. CIT v. Apollo Hospitals Enterprises Ltd. (2008) 23 (I) ITCL 318 (Mad-HC)

30 June 2011 My Company is an Industrial Undertaking and we want to amalgamate with a company providing call center services. As per your comment, we can carry forward and set off the loss of the amalgamating company.

Is there any decided case law, where it is proved that only amalgamated company is an Industrial Undertaking and yet allowance under section 72A has been given?


30 June 2011 As per the given case law it is held that amalgamating company has to be an Industrial Undertaking for the purpose of section 72A.

Please correct, if my interpretation of the above case law is wrong.

01 July 2011 that is what the case is saying

01 July 2011 So we as an industrial undertaking should not amalgamate with a loss making company which is not an industrial undertaking, as we wont get benefits under section 72A.
