December 4, 2012 4448 Views 0 comment Print

This argument of the ld. advocate is prima facie untenable as the appellants are recovering charges incurred for maintenance of the common areas from the individual shop owners.

I have gone through the papers and the previous orders passed by this Court. It is found from the order sheet that the respondent himself has admitted the debt and he filed memo and further his memo again reflected in the joint memo filed and based on the post dated cheques issued in terms of the memo/joint memo, the petition was closed.

The assessee in this case has used multiple year data in computing the arm’s length price. The TPO, the Assessing Officer as well as the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) have held that, such action by the assessee is contrary to the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961 and thus it tantamounts to furnishing of inaccurate particulars of income.

Addition cannot be made for mere appearance of a transaction in AIR

December 4, 2012 2638 Views 0 comment Print

Just because an AIR report was generated indicating the PAN No. of assessee, the onus does not shift completely to assessee. It is the responsibility of AO to examine complete details before asking for reconciliation and whether the transactions were indeed undertaken or not.
