The Tribunal quashed penalties for AYs 2009-10 and 2012-13, holding that show-cause notices must clearly specify the charge under Section 271(1)(c). Vague notices violating natural justice cannot sustain penalties. This reinforces the strict requirement for specificity in penalty proceedings.
Tribunal held that CIT(A) erred in rejecting the appeal despite Supreme Court–mandated limitation extensions. COVID-19–related delays must be liberally condoned when reasonable cause is shown.
The Tribunal clarified two key issues: depreciation on assets received in demerger and PF/ESI contribution disallowances. Revenue’s appeal was dismissed for AY 2017-18, while the assessee’s appeal for AY 2024-25 was partly allowed. This decision reinforces consistency in asset-related claims and practical application of Section 36(1)(va).
The Tribunal held that audited separate books proved correct profits, making the AO’s proportionate estimation unsustainable. 80P deduction cannot be reduced when business-wise accounts are properly maintained.
The Tribunal examined the levy of late fees under Section 234E for TDS defaults prior to the Finance Act 2015 amendment. It held that Section 234E, as a charging provision, was enforceable even before procedural updates in Section 200A. The ruling emphasizes that machinery provisions cannot negate substantive liabilities.
The Tribunal held that donations to an institution whose approval was withdrawn retrospectively cannot qualify for deduction under Section 35(1)(ii). Reopening was upheld, and bona fide belief offered no protection.
The Tribunal observed that the cooperative society’s members relied entirely on their CA, who failed to represent them in ex-parte assessments. In the interest of justice, the quantum additions were set aside and restored for fresh adjudication. Penalties were also deleted pending reassessment.
The ITAT quashed assessments under Section 153A due to ex-parte orders, mechanical Section 153D approvals, and failure to give the assessee an opportunity to be heard, emphasizing the importance of natural justice in tax proceedings.
ITAT required the Assessing Officer to verify whether the correct tax credit was allowed. The assessee must present supporting evidence, ensuring accurate refunds under the Income Tax Act.
The Tribunal found the Final Assessment Order invalid as it was issued before the 30-day objection period under Section 144C expired. This violated the assessee’s procedural rights. All transfer pricing adjustments and tax demands linked to the order were deleted, partly allowing the appeal.
