ALLOWABILITY OF OUTSTANDING INTEREST CONVERTED INTO DEBENTURES AS AN EXPENSE ...DVSResearchFoundatio
The Supreme Court ruled that the conversion of outstanding interest into debentures by the assessee company qualified for deduction under Section 43B of the Income Tax Act. The conversion was done under a rehabilitation plan agreed with institutional creditors to extinguish the interest liability. The Court observed that Section 43B was not meant to affect bona fide transactions, and debentures were different than loans/borrowings under Explanation 3C. It set aside the High Court's decision and allowed the assessee's claim for deduction, noting the conversion was an actual payment of interest rather than postponing the liability.

What are the post listing compliance norms for SME entities?DVSResearchFoundatio
The document summarizes post-listing compliance norms for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) listed on SME exchanges in India. It discusses requirements for further capital issues, green shoe options, migration to the main board, further public offerings, and mandatory and voluntary disclosures. Key requirements include making full disclosures for further issues, obtaining shareholder approval for green shoe options, complying with eligibility criteria for migration, and submitting regular financial disclosures and statements on the use of IPO proceeds.
1) Prior to listing on an SME exchange, a company must file an offer document with SEBI and the relevant stock exchange and appoint qualified intermediaries like lead managers, registrars, and syndicate members.
2) The company must make required disclosures in the offer document and the lead manager must conduct due diligence on these disclosures.
3) After filing the offer document, the company must price the issue, keep the issue open for subscription for at least 3 days, and ensure the issue is underwritten and market making arrangements are in place.
This document outlines the criteria for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to list on the SME platforms of the National Stock Exchange (NSE) and Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) in India. The key eligibility criteria are a positive net worth, a track record of at least 3 years of operations, and operating profits over the last 2-3 years. Additional disclosure requirements include details on directors, regulatory actions, litigation status, and defaults. SMEs listed can later migrate to the main board of the exchanges if they meet certain criteria like company size and track record. As of now, over 220 companies are listed on NSE's SME platform and over 100 have migrated from BSE's SME platform

Escorts Skill Development v. Commissioner of Income-tax (Exemptions), Chandigarh

The assessee (section 8 company) filed application for registration under section 12AA. The primary aim for forming the
company was merely to comply with the requirement of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) of its parent company
CIT rejected the application contending that charitable activities under the garb of CSR activities are mere camouflage to
get the registration u/s 12AA and 80G of the Act
Tribunal held that merely because of the fact that the applicant company has been established to comply with the CSR
obligations, the registration u/s 12AA of the Act cannot be denied, particularly when CSR activities are also charitable
activities as defined under the Act
