Penalty for concealment can be levied if assessee acted in contumacious manner

December 1, 2011 552 Views 0 comment Print

In T. Ashok Pai v. CIT [2007] 292 ITR 11 the Supreme Court observed that if the explanation given by an assessee is taken to be bona fide, the question of imposition of penalty under section 271(1)(c) of the Act would not arise. Although the findings arrived at in assessment proceedings would constitute good material for penalty proceedings, yet in penalty proceedings, the matter has to be looked at differently since the consequences for the assessee would be different, and penal. Therefore, the rule of strict construction would apply.

Re-assessment proceedings cannot, be initiated on the ground that the Assessing Officer was legally wrong and had misapplied and wrongly understood the law/legal position

BLB Limited Vs. ACIT (Delhi HC) – If in the course of original assessment proceedings, the Assessing Officer has considered and examined a particular aspect, the said aspect cannot be made a ground to reopen and initiate reassessment proceedings. The assessing authority cannot have a fresh look and reopen an assessment on the ground of change of opinion.

The article will provide you brief analysis of this section which will help to substantiate your views at the time of the the assessment or before the appellate authority.

Merely because, the assessee did not furnish the report before the due date of filing of the return, that may not automatically attract the penalty

December 1, 2011 736 Views 0 comment Print

Pneumech Engineers Vs. ITO (ITAT Mumbai) – An order imposing penalty for failure to carry out a statutory obligation is the result of a quasi-criminal proceeding, and penalty will not ordinarily be imposed unless the party obliged either acted deliberately in defiance of law or was guilty to conduct contumacious or dishonest, or acted in conscious disregard of its obligation. Penalty will not also be imposed merely because it is lawful to do so. Whether penalty should be imposed for failure to perform a statutory obligation is a matter of discretion of the authority to be exercised to be exercised judicially and on a consideration of all the relevant circumstances. Even if a minimum penalty is prescribed, the authority competent to impose the penalty will be justified in refusing to impose penalty, when there is a technical or venial breach of the provisions of the Act or where the breach flows from a bona fide belief that the offender is not liable to act in the manner prescribed by the statute.

Maruti Suzuki India Limited vs. DCIT (Delhi High Court)- HC held that reliance on the negative order passed by the Dispute Resolution Panel (DRP) by the tax department is not a valid ground for not staying the demand where issues are covered by the order of the Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals) [CIT(A)] or the Income-tax Appellate Tribunal (the Tribunal). Further the same cannot be a ground for making adjustment of refund of earlier years under Section 245 of the Act.

High Court has no Power to entertain grounds not raised before tribunal

November 30, 2011 1931 Views 0 comment Print

C& C Construction Pvt Ltd vs. CIT (Delhi High Court)- Clause (a) of sub-Section (6) to Section 260A of the Act states that the High Court may decide an issue, which is not determined by the Appellate Tribunal. The word determined means that the issue is not dealt with, though it was raised before the Tribunal. The word determined presupposes an issue was raised or argued but there is failure of the Tribunal to decide or adjudicated the same. In a given case, a substantial question of law may arise because of the facts and findings recorded by the Tribunal, but the said issue/question is not determined. In such cases, an appeal under Section 260A of the Act can be entertained.
