SLUMP SALE AND ITS TAXABILITY

  SLUMP SALE AND ITS TAXABILITY MEANING OF “SLUMP SALE” AND “UNDERTAKING” The scheme of taxation of a “slump sale” is provided under section 2(42C) r. w. section 50B of the Act. Section 2(42C) defines slump sale to mean a transfer of one or more undertakings for a lumpsum consideration without values being assigned to the individual assets and liabilities in such sales. The term “undertaking” is defined in Explanation 1 to clause (19AA) of section 2 of the Act. The Finance Act 2021, has amended the definition of “slump sale” to provide that all types of ‘transfer’ as defined under section 2(47) shall be included within the scope of slump sale. The effect of this amendment is that all types of slump transfers, including slump exchange, are now governed by section 50B of the Act. By virtue of this amendment the decision of the Bombay High Court in case of Bharat Bijilee Ltd 46 taxmann.com 257(Bom) got nullified.

INCOME FROM SALARIES

  INCOME FROM SALARIES BASIC CONCEPT Any payment made by an employer to an employee for the services rendered by him is chargeable to tax as salary and envisages a ‘contract of employment’. The employer - employee relationship or master-servant relationship is an essential ingredient of a ‘contract of employment’ as against a ‘contract for employment’. The distinguishing feature of a ‘contract of employment’ that differentiates it from a ‘contract for employment’ is that the master or employer has the right to supervise and control the work done by the employee and not only directs what and when the work is to be done, but also how it should be done, and the employee is bound to carry out the said instructions. On the other hand, under a contract for employment, the master merely directs what is to be done, while the methodology for carrying out the work is left to the discretion of the servant. E.g. any fees received by a part-time consultant will not be assessed as salary but wil...
