Dear Friends
FRINGE BENEFIT TAX is covered under Chapter XII-H of Income-tax Act, 1961.
Section 245 of Income-tax Act, 1961 empowers an Assessing Officer to set off the amount to be refunded under any provisions of Income-tax Act against the sum if any remaining payable under this Act after giving intimation in writing to the assessee.
Though there is no provision in the act that the assessee can make an application to set off the refund due to him againt any demand due from him, the Assessing Officers are entertaining such applications moved by the assessees.
In view of the above an application can be moved before the Assessing Officer requesting him to set off refund due under FBT against the income-tax payable as the section 245 speaks of any refund and any tax under the provisions of Income-tax Act, 1961.
Best Wishes
Sathikonda
