The ITAT Ahmedabad deleted a Rs.1.02 crore addition made under Section 68, rejecting the AO’s claim that a loan was an accommodation entry. The Tribunal ruled the loan was a genuine business transaction, used specifically for repaying an existing business loan, establishing the required nexus and purpose.
Comparison of Old vs. Default Tax Regimes (Sec 115BAC) for salaried income. Covers tax slabs, Standard Deduction, and Surcharge rates. Details the trade-off: reduced tax rates under Default Regime vs. forfeited exemptions like HRA, LTA, and 80C deductions.
The CIT(A) deleted a ₹ 75.5 lakh addition under Section 68 after finding the AO violated natural justice by denying cross-examination of the third-party who provided the statement. The ITAT accepted the reassessment was correctly initiated under Section 147, but the final ruling on the Revenue’s appeal is incomplete.
The Tribunal dismissed the assessee’s appeal, confirming that opting for Section 115BAA overrides the 20% LTCG rate under Section 112.
Effective April 1, 2026, the statutory limit for correcting TDS/TCS returns is 2 years from the FY end. This new rule eliminates unlimited revisions, demanding timely compliance to avoid penalties and blocked refunds.
ITAT Chennai granted relief, holding that reversal of a provision for liquidated damages, which was disallowed and subsequently taxed under VSV Scheme in earlier years, cannot be taxed again under Section 41(1). This prevents double taxation.
ITAT Delhi directed the AO to compute Annual Letting Value (ALV) only for the portion of the house property actually rented out (third/fourth floors). Taxing the entire property based on assumptions, ignoring the owner’s self-occupation, was held to be unjustified.
ITAT Kolkata quashed the reopening for AY 2015-16, following the Supreme Court’s Rajeev Bansal ruling. The Tribunal held that the benefit of the extended limitation under TOLA was unavailable after 01.04.2021 for this assessment year.
ITAT Kolkata invalidated the assessment under Section 143(3), ruling that the foundational notice under Section 143(2) was void ab initio for failing to comply with the mandatory CBDT prescribed format. CBDT instructions issued under Section 119 are binding on the department.
ITAT Kolkata ruled that a charitable trust’s exemption under Section 11/10(23C) cannot be denied for technical lapse of belatedly filing Form 10B/10BB. Audit report was available when return was processed.
