Delhi HC Upholds Constitutional Validity Of Section 71(3A) Income Tax Act; Dismisses Petition Challenging Rs. 2 Lakh Cap On House Property Income Set-Off

Live Law  

The Delhi High Court dismissed a writ petition challenging the constitutional validity of Section 31 of the Finance Act, 2017. Since the house was constructed using borrowed capital, under Section 24 of the Income Tax Act, the interest payable on such capital was eligible for deduction from the head “Income from house property.” The income chargeable under this head was to be computed after deducting the interest payable on the borrowed capital, and this deduction was also eligible for set off as per Section 71 of the ITA. However, by virtue of the Finance Act, 2017, the threshold limit for set off of loss under the head “Income from house property” against any other head of income was restricted to Rs. In the instant case, neither the old provisions, as they existed, nor the amended provisions endeavour to create or disturb any indefeasible right in favour of the petitioner so as to allow him to claim any legitimate expectation to set off the amount in the manner canvassed before us.” The Court further stated that without such a crystallized right, the petitioner's argument that the amendment violates Article 14 of the Constitution is untenable.
