I am in the construction industry developing IT parks and leasing it to STPI clients. To avail 80-IA benefits, the deduction is extended only for profits and gains derived.
1. please clarify whether this deduction can be exended to House Property Income wherein the rentals received from clients has to be considered as Income from House property based on so many case laws. Will the Dept disallow 80-IA benefits if this is being treated as House Property Income.
2. Our activity is not only letting of bare shell but also providing facilities viz., Air conditioning, DG backup etc., Can we consider rentals as Business Income and if so, on what basis we can consider as Business Income. Would request for case laws also to support the stand.
3. Also the objects in MOA of the company includes leasing of the property and based on this can we consider as Business Income and avail 80-IA benefits.
