Issues in Transfer of ‘Division Circle Club’ from Circle Club & Resorts Pvt. Limited to
Space Circle Pvt. Ltd.
In relation to capital assets being an undertaking transferred by way of such sale, the “net
worth” of the undertaking shall be deemed to be the cost of acquisition and cost of
improvement.
“net worth” shall be the aggregate value of total assets of the undertaking as reduced by
the value of liabilities of such undertaking as appearing in its books of account.
For computing the “net worth”, the aggregate value of total assets shall be –
a) in case of depreciable assets, the written down value of the block of assets.
b) In case of other assets the book value of such assets.
The “Net Worth” of Division Circle Club as it appears from the face of Balance Sheet as
at 31st March, 2002 is as follows:-
Total Assets
Fixed Assets – WDV – Rs. 470 lacs
P&L A/cs - Rs. 140 lacs
Misc Expenditure - Rs. 10 lacs
Rs. 620 lacs
Members Deposit - WDV – Rs. 593 lacs
Net Worth - Rs. 27 lacs
Now if assume Rs. 27 lacs as consideration for such transfer than there will be a situation
of no profit & no loss. However actual assets & liabilities directly attributable to
“Division Circle Club” needs to be ascertained.
The above transfer referred to as “slump sale” under the Income Tax Act will be governed
by provision of section 293(1)(a) of the Companies Act which will require ordinary
resolution by Share Holders to be passed.
However before going ahead with the above scheme issues of membership deposit
agreement, stamp duty, Amount & mode of consideration & any incidental issues arising
out of above transfer needs to be addressed.
Moreover it will be advisable to take an opinion from an Income Tax, Company Law as
well as accounting expert to examine all the relevant issues.
