NOTE 16 - INCOME TAXES

Hong Kong

DTS8 Holdings Co. Ltd was incorporated in Hong Kong and, under the current Hong Kong Inland Revenue Ordinance; the Company is subject to 16.5% income tax on its taxable income generated from operations in Hong Kong. For the years ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, no provision for Hong Kong tax has been made as DTS8 Holdings has no taxable income generated from operations in Hong Kong during the year.

People’s Republic of China

 

The Company’s subsidiary DTS8 Coffee (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. a wholly owned foreign subsidiary entity (“WOFE”) corporation organized and existing in Shanghai, under the laws of the People’s Republic of China is governed by the Enterprise Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China (“EIT Law”). The Company is subject to tax at a statutory rate of 25% on income reported in the statutory financial statements. The EIT Law also imposes a withholding income tax of 10% on dividends distributed by a foreign invested enterprise to its immediate holding company outside of China, if such immediate holding company is considered as a non-resident enterprise without any establishment or place within China or if the received dividends have no connection with the establishment or place of such immediate holding company within China, unless such immediate holding company’s jurisdiction of incorporation has a tax treaty with China that provides for a different withholding arrangement. According to the arrangement between Mainland China and Hong Kong Special Administrative Region on the Avoidance of Double Taxation and Prevention of Fiscal Evasion in August 2006, dividends paid by a foreign-invested enterprise in China to its direct holding company incorporated in Hong Kong will be subject to withholding tax at a rate of no more than 5% (if the foreign investor owns directly at least 25% of the shares of the FIE).

 

 

As of April 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company was still in loss position; therefore no deferred tax liability was recognized related to the undistributed earnings subject to withholding tax.

Net operating loss carry forward of the Company, amounted to $394,992 and $349,260 for the years ended April 30, 2012 and 2011. In assessing the reliability of deferred income tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. As of April 30, 2012 and 2011, deferred income tax assets represented the operating loss carry forward of the Company’s PRC subsidiary, DTS8 Coffee. Management believes that the Company’s cumulative losses arising from recurring business in recent years, constituted significant negative evidence that deferred tax assets would not be realizable and this evidence outweighed the expectations that the Company would generate future taxable income. Therefore, a full valuation allowance has been provided against the Company’s deferred income tax assets as of April 30, 2012 and 2011.

 

The Company is in accumulated loss for the years ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, therefore no tax provision was provided. The reconciliation between the U.S. statutory income tax rate and the Company’s effective tax rate is as below:
