35AD and 10AA now mutually exclusive

The existing provisions of sub-section (3) of the section 35AD provide that where any assessee has claimed a deduction under this section, no deduction shall be allowed under the provisions of Chapter VIA for the same or any other assessment year. As section 10AA also provides for profit linked deduction in respect of units set-up in Special Economic Zones, it is proposed to amend section 35AD so as to provide that where any deduction has been availed of by the assessee on account of capital expenditure incurred for the purposes of specified business in any assessment year, no deduction under section 10AA shall be available to the assessee in the same or any other assessment year in respect of such specified business.

As a consequence of this amendment, section 10AA is also proposed to be amended so as to provide that no deduction under section 35AD shall be available in any assessment year to a specified business which has claimed and availed of deduction under section 10AA in the same or any other assessment year.


These amendments will take effect from 1st April, 2015 and will, accordingly, apply in relation to the assessment year
2015-16 and subsequent assessment years.
