Introduction:
Corporate tax planning provides strategies that are significant in minimizing taxes. Some
valuable ways to save include sponsoring a retirement plan, writing off company assets, claiming
depreciation expense, taking deductions on business automobiles, office expenses, self
employment health insurance, and employer sponsored child care resources, and using a home
office for the company. A company owner needs to be aware of anything that might impact taxes
paid. Corporate tax planning provides some ways that a business owner can save on income
taxes both short-term and long-term. The shifting of income to a family member could raise their
income bracket and this should be considered. This is a business tax planning venture that should
benefit both parties and should be done ethically and reasonably. To shift a large amount of
income to a family member just to avoid paying taxes would be unethical unless there were a
legitimate reason such as payment for services. Corporate tax planning involves looking out for
employees by offering retirement, cafeteria and medical benefit plans. Corporate tax planning
sources suggests making sure that write-offs are legitimate business expenses. There is a degree
of burden that is felt from tax legislation by any and every owner. However, there are positive
ways that a corporation can comply with obligations and find ways to develop a strong company
otherwise. Business tax planning includes taking advantage of opportunities to provide relief
when possible. Charitable contributions are a great way for a company to save on taxes and help
those in the community.

Corporate TaxPlanning:
"Taxes are dues that we pay for the privileges of membership in an organized society."
Tax is a compulsory payment made to the Government for services it provides us, though people
may not be completely satisfied or convinced with these services. Income tax is an instrument
used by the government to achieve its social and economic objectives. Simply put, tax is duty or
tariff that income earning individuals pay to the Government in exchange of certain benefits such
as law and order, healthcare, education and a lot more. With proper planning, your tax liability
can be reduced and optimized effectively, leaving you with a greater share of your income in
your hands than being paid out as tax. Income earned in the twelve months contained in the
period from 1st April to 31st March (Financial Year) is taken into account when calculating
income tax. Under the Income Tax Act this period is called the previous year.

7. 7
COMPUTATION OF TOTAL INCOME:
According to section 4 of the Income tax act 1961 tax is to be charged on total
income of an assessee relating to previous year in the assessment year. Total Income is defined
in section 5 and to be computed in the manner as lay down in section 14 of the act. Section 15
provides the basis for the computation of total income and which is based upon residential status
of assessee in relevant previous year.
Section 14 of Income Tax Act 1961 provides for the computation of company
income of an assessee which is divided under four heads of income. Each head of Income has its
own method of computation. These five heads are:
I. Income from ‘House Property’ ;
II. Income from ‘Business or Profession’ ;
III. Income from ‘Capital Gains’ ; and
IV. Income from ‘Other Sources’.
Income from all these heads shall be computed separately according to the
provisions given in this Act. Income computed under these heads shall be aggregated after
adjusting past and present losses and the total so arrived at is known as ‘Gross Total Income’.

8. 8
INCOME FROM HOUSE PROPERTY:
Income from House property is calculated by considering the Annual Value. The annual
value (for a let out property) will be maximum of the following:
 HRA Rent received
 Municipal Valuation
 Fair Rent (as determined by the I.T. department)
However if a house is not let out and not self-occupied, then annual value is assumed to have
accrued to the owner. In case of a self occupied house, annual value is to be taken as NIL. But if
there is more than one self occupied house then the annual value of the other house/s is taxable.
From this, Municipal Tax paid is deducted to arrive at the Net Annual Value. From this Net
Annual Value, the following are deducted:
 30% of Net value as repair cost - mandatory deduction.
 Interest paid or payable on a housing loan for the house.
INCOME FROM BUSINESS OR PROFESSION:
Income arising from profits and gains of any Business or Profession; income derived by a
Trade/ Professional/ similar Association by performing specific services for its members; any
benefit from business whether convertible into money or not, incentives for exporters; any
salary, interest, bonus, commission or remuneration received by Partner of a firm; any amount
received under a Key man Insurance Policy which also covers Bonus; income from managing
agency and speculative transactions; is taxable.

9. 9
INCOME FROM CAPITAL GAINS:
Under section 2(14) of the I.T. Act, 1961, Capital asset is defined as property of any kind
held by an assessee such as real estate, equity shares, bonds, jewellery, paintings, art etc. but
does not consist of items like stock-in-trade for businesses or for personal effects. Capital gains
arise by transfer of such capital assets.
Long term and short term capital assets are considered for tax purposes. Long term assets are
those assets which are held by a person for three years except in case of shares or mutual funds
which becomes long term just after one year of holding. Sale of long term assets give rise to long
term capital gains which is taxable as below:
 As per Section 10(38) of Income Tax Act, 1961 long term capital gains on
shares/securities/ mutual funds on which Securities Transaction Tax (STT) has been
deducted and paid, no tax is payable. Higher capital gains taxes will apply only on those
transactions where STT is not paid.
 For other shares & securities, person has an option to either index costs to inflation and
pay 20% of indexed gains, or pay 10% of non indexed gains.
 For all other long term capital gains, indexation benefit is available and tax rate is 20%
INCOME FROM OTHER SOURCES:
There are some specific incomes which are to be taxed under this category such as
income by way of dividends, horse races, winning of bull races, winning of lotteries, amount
received from key man insurance policy.
So as we can see the Indian Income Tax law is a subject which is filled with legal jargons
and complexities that keep on changing every new financial year and the importance of this law
in our routine life simply cannot be ignored. Whether it is filing of Income Returns on due dates
or whether it's a financial investment decision to be taken, every where the Income Tax
provisions play a major role in driving of the cost factor.

2. DEDUCTION OF TAX AT SOURCE:
In certain specified cases of income, tax at source should be deducted by the person
responsible for making payment of such income. Income-tax Act provides that such tax must be
deducted from the amounts of both residents and non residents according to the rates prescribed
in Finance Act of that year.
Specified cases of income where tax is deductible at source are normally those cases
where the income can be calculated in advance, i.e. the assessee can know his income even
before the expire of that previous year. Generally, in these cases assessee’s income, may be
more or less, is known sections 192 to 206 deal with the deduction of tax at source.
The specified cases where tax is deducted at source are: salary, interest on securities,
interest other than interest on securities, dividends, winning from lotteries and crossword
puzzles, payment to contractors, insurance commission, and winning from horse races and also
on other chargeable under the Act, which are paid to non residents.

be deducted at the rate applicable to the corresponding slab of income every month in
equal instalments subject to adjustments depending upon tax saving investments
made by the deductee.When an employee is working with more than one employer

3. TAX PLANNING IN CASE OF AMALGAMATION:
Meaning of Amalgamation under the Income Tax Act [Sec 2(1B)]
"Amalgamation", in relation to companies, means the merger of one or more companies
withanother company or the merger of two or more companies to form one company
(thecompany or companies which so merge being referred to as the amalgamating company
or companies and the company with which they merge or which is formed as a result of
themerger, as the amalgamated company) in such a manner that –
a) All the property of the amalgamating company or companies immediately before the
amalgamation becomes the property of the amalgamated company by virtue of the
amalgamation;
b) All the liabilities of the amalgamating company or companies immediately before the
amalgamation become the liabilities of the amalgamated company by virtue of the
amalgamation;
c) Shareholders holding not less than three-fourths in value of the shares in the
amalgamating company or companies (other than shares already held therein immediately before
the amalgamation by, or by a nominee for, the amalgamated company or its subsidiary) become
shareholders of the amalgamated company by virtue of the amalgamation.

16. 16
TAX BENEFITS: One of the benefits accruing to the amalgamating company as a result
of amalgamation is that there is no capital gains chargeable to tax, by virtue of the fact that the
provisions of the Sec. 45 will not be applicable to a transfer in a scheme of amalgamation of
capital assets by the amalgamating companies to the amalgamated company (Clause vi of Sec.
47). Further, the shareholder of the amalgamating company also does not suffer any charge of
capital gains on transfer of shares held by him in the amalgamating company, if the consideration
is satisfied by allotment of shares in the amalgamated company (Clause viii of Sec. 47). The
question will then arise as to what would happen to a shareholder who does not wish to become a
shareholder of the amalgamated company (in the 25% excluded category). Such a shareholder
will be compensated by payment in a form other than shares in the amalgamated company and
therefore will be liable to tax on the capital gain arising out of the transfer. A further aspect of
the transfer is provided in Sec.49, which is to the effect that for a capital asset, which becomes
the property of the amalgamated company in a scheme of amalgamation, the cost of acquisition
will be deemed to be the cost for which the previous owner acquired it.
4. TAX CONSIDERATION OF CAPITAL STRUCTURE:-A company's capital structure is
the method a company uses to finance its operations and growth utilizing various sources of
funding. Capital structure is a mix of a company's long-term debt, specific short-term debt,
common equity and preferred equity. Firms that rely heavily on debt for financing operations
pose greater investment risks. Factors that affect a company's capital structure include
business risk, taxation, financial flexibility, management style, growth rate and market
conditions.
A company goes through many considerations in choosing its capital structure, and one of
those considerations is the tax impact. The two options for capital are debt and equity. One of
them receives a tax break but increases the financial risk of a company while the other one
does not share those same qualities.

17. 17
Cost of Capital and its tax treatment for Debentures:-The cost of capital for loans and
debentures refers to interest payable to lender or debenture holder. An interest rate is the rate at
which interest is paid by borrowers for the use of money that they borrow from a lender.

calculating business income. The allow ability of interest can be on due basis or payment basis.

income
(1)interest on loan from any public financial institutions like IDBI,ICICI,SFC.
(2) Interest on any loan taken from a scheduled bank including a co-operative Bank.
Cost of Capital and its tax treatment for equity and preference shares:-Dividend signifies
cost of capital for owned capital. “dividend” includes—
(a) Any distribution by a company of accumulated profits, whether capitalized or not, if such
distribution entails the release by the company to its shareholders of all or any part of the assets
of the company;
(b) any distribution to its shareholders by a company of debentures, debenture-stock, or deposit
