Deal with cases in which there is stay of Tax recovery on higher priority: HC to ITAT

November 21, 2019 1077 Views 0 comment Print

In cases where there is stay of recovery of demand of tax, the Tribunal should deal with the appeals pending before it on a higher priority. The Tribunal should consider forming a separate list of such cases which should be heard on priority after arranging the cases on the basis of their seniority as well as the quantum involved in the stay.

Penalty cannot be imposed when income was estimated by applying a percentage

November 21, 2019 1563 Views 0 comment Print

We find that in this case the assessment was framed by the AO after making ex-parte addition of Rs.16,54,146/-towards 100% of the bogus purchases which the co-ordinate bench of the Tribunal in quantum proceedings reduced to 12.5% of such purchases. In our opinion, this is a clear cut case where the income has been estimated by applying a percentage of 12.5% and therefore the penalty under section 271(1)(c) can not be imposed. We are, therefore, setting aside the order of Ld.  CIT(A) and direct the AO to delete the penalty.
