Hello Experts,

I stay at Kalyan, Thane on the outskirts of Mumbai. I have put my property (1) on rent and living in the 2nd property (2). I work in Mumbai, close to Sion. My travel time is ~2 hours one way.

As I am ageing, I wish to rent a place closer to my office in Sion to reduce the travel time. My company provides me HRA benefit.

so my question is - Can I claim HRA deductions/benefit, inspite of I owning a self occupied property in Kalyan? Would IT act consider Kalyan out side of Mumbai and grant the benifit?

Hoping for some guidance from the community.

We are Goods Transport agency, and have sold two commercial vehicles during July 2023. My question is whether we can we depreciate the sold vehicles at 50% of usual depreciation rate (30%) as they are sold in July 2023 and are put to use for less than 180 days during this Financial Year.

Thank You,

An individual shifted jobs mid-year. He has duly submitted details about total salary paid and tax deducted by previous employer in Form 12B to the new employer. However, the new employer failed to consider previous income for calculation of TDS on aggregate salary for the whole year. As a result there has been shortfall in taxes paid and now a huge sum as tax alongwith penal interest needs to be shelled out by the individual. Can the new employer be held responsible for short deduction of TDS and be asked to compensate for the penal interest?

We are a Central Govt. undertaking under Ministry of Steel, Govt. of India. The income of our organisation is exempted u/s. 10(23C)(iv) of the Income Tax Act, 1961. We have our own guest houses all over India, used by guests from our company as well as by outsiders including Govt. Officers and employees. We charge GST on the guest house bills at the prevailing rates.

Is there any provision under the present GST laws where our guest houses will not charge GST at all on the bills ?

Shall be thankful if replied with suitable provision(s) and section(s)

Thank you and best regards.

Hi Sir, I am getting below validation error while filing ITR-4 for professional. I have already selected the code from the list in profession tab. "Business code u/s 44ADA is to be selected for income declared u/s 44ADA."

My client has been awarded compensation of account of compulsory acquisition of land and building by NHAI. My only doubt is whether the compensation received on account of "building" is taxable or not, as compensation received on compulsory acquisition of land is exempt.
