Dyna Hitech Power Systems Ltd. Vs ACIT (ITAT Mumbai) – When the matter was called on for hearing, nobody appeared on behalf of the assessee nor was any application for adjournment filed. From the acknowledgement-cum-notice, it is transpired that the assessee’s representative has noted the date of hearing, as is evident from his signature on the acknowledgement slip on 14.3.2011. It is, therefore, inferred that the assessee is not interested in pursuing the appeal which is hereby dismissed for non-prosecution following the order of the Delhi Bench of the Tribunal in the case of CIT vs. Multiplan India (P) Ltd. (1991) 38 ITD 320 (Del). and also the judgment of Hon’ble Bombay High Court in the case of Chemipol v UOI, dated 17th September, 2009 (BHC).
Adarsh Kanch Udyog Pvt. Ltd. vs. ITO (ITAT Delhi) – Assessee has raised a specific ground that order passed u/s 143(3) was not valid in as much as there is no proof of valid service of notice u/s 143(2) within the limitation period of 12 months, as per proviso to section 143(2). We further find that Ld. Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) has not properly given a finding on this issue. He has only observed that the grounds and the arguments of the assessee are not very strong. In our considered opinion, Ld. Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) should pass a speaking order on this issue incorporating his specific finding in this regard. Accordingly, we remit this issue to the file of the Ld. Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals), to consider the same afresh.

CIT v. Bharti Cellular Ltd. & Hutchison Essar Telecom Ltd. (SC) – On this issue, the Delhi High Court had held that the services rendered in relation to interconnection, port access did not involve any human interface and, therefore, the services could not be regarded as “technical services” as contemplated under section 194J. The expression “technical service” would have reference to only technical service rendered by a human. It would not include any service provided by machines or robots. The Delhi High Court, therefore, concluded that interconnect charges/port access charges could not be regarded as fees for technical services, and hence, TDS provisions under section 194J were not attracted.
Federal Bank Ltd. v. ACIT (2011) 332 ITR 319 (Kerala High Court) – On this issue, the High Court held that the rate of depreciation of 60% is available to computers and there is no ground to treat the communication equipment as computers. Hence, EPABX and mobile phones are not computers and therefore, are not entitled to higher depreciation at 60%.
ITO vs. Sh. Ashok Kumar Kesarwani (ITAT Delhi) – Impugned addition in this regard were made by the Assessing Officer as the assessee has failed to provide the necessary documentary evidence with regard to the transactions.

In our considered opinion, interest of justice will be served, if the matter is remitted to the file of the Assessing Officer to consider the issue afresh. Assessee is directed to provide the necessary details to the Assessing Officer in this regard. Accordingly, the issue stands remitted to the file of the Assessing Officer .
