COMMNR.,INCOME TAX, THIRUVANANTHAPURAM vs K. RAVINDRANATHAN NAIR

The Supreme Court addressed the computation of export incentives under Section 80HHC(3) of the Income Tax Act, 1961, determining whether processing charges should be included in the total turnover for calculating export profits. The Court held that the processing charges, although part of business profits under Section 28, should not be included in the total turnover for the purpose of Section 80HHC(3). Consequently, the Department's inclusion of these charges was deemed incorrect, leading to a favorable outcome for the assessee.
