Notification No. 2278

Notification of a person, body or fund under section 193 of the Income-tax Act, 1961

What this is

Notification No. 2278 was published on 18 June 1988. Its subject is Notification of a person, body or fund under section 193 of the Income-tax Act, 1961.

This notifies a named person, body, fund or instrument for the purpose of a provision. Nothing in it changes the provision itself.

The provisions it speaks to

Left, the provision of the Income-tax Act, 1961 as the instrument itself names it. Right, the section of the Income-tax Act, 2025 that the department’s own concordance maps it to — which is where the same ground is now covered.

The instrument, as the Board published it

The words below are the department’s own, reproduced from its published text. Where the department’s copy carried a publisher’s notes after the instrument, those are not reproduced.

In exercise of the powers conferred by clause (iib) of the proviso to section 193 of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (43 of 1961), the Central Government hereby specifies " 12.5% HDFC Bonds, 1998 " issued by the Housing Development Finance Corporation Limited, Bombay, for the purposes of the said clause :

Provided that the benefit under the said proviso shall be admissible in the case of transfer of such bonds by endorsement or delivery, only if the transferee informs the Housing Development Finance Corporation Limited, by registered post within a period of sixty days of such transfer. [No. 8017/F. No. 275/77/88-IT(B)

On the same provision

Other instruments in this library that name the same provision of the 1961 Act. They are not necessarily still operative, and a later one may have replaced an earlier one without saying so.

What a notification is. A notification is made under a power the Act itself gives, and within that power it is law — unlike a circular, which only binds the department. Its reach is the reach of the enabling provision and no wider, and the date it carries decides from when it works.
