Increase limit for Disposal of Appeals by Single Member Benches of ITAT

January 21, 2016 3594 Views 0 comment Print

The existing provisions of Section 255(3) provide that a Single Member Bench of the Appellate Tribunal can dispose of Appeals in cases where the assessed income of the assessee does not exceed Rs.15 lakhs. On account of this limit, which is small in the view of the Committee, cases where the total income assessed is more than the above figure, cannot be heard by SMC Benches. The Committee recommends that in the interest of speedy disposal of appeals the limit can be enhanced to rupees one crore where the tax effect involved would be around Rs.30 lakhs. This will also help disposal of appeals in places where there is only one Bench functioning.
