Benefits of Sec. 12A and 80G cannot be allowed if there is no charitable activity and assessee undertakes only commercial activity
ITAT Delhi bench held that in a case where the objects of the society may be charitable, but, in the absence of carrying on those activities despite the fact that the activities which were carried on were for the purpose of generating income, the society is not entitled for registration for benefits of Sec. 12A and 80G for that year. It has been held that for assessment years in which the assessee does not carry out charitable activity, the assessee has been rightly refused to get benefit of registration as charitable institution. The only activity which has been carried out is for the purpose of generating income, which is not a charitable activity in itself........
