This guide breaks down the complete taxation of salary income in India—covering allowances, perquisites, retirement benefits, and exemptions available to salaried taxpayers.
The ITAT set aside a massive unexplained investment addition made on a joint bank account, ruling that the CIT(A) failed to consider vital documentary evidence submitted by the assessee. The case is remanded to the AO for fresh verification of the documents, which claim the deposits were company business, not personal income.
ITAT Lucknow held that rectification under Section 154 cannot be invoked when a trust deed does not specify beneficiaries’ shares. Since the shares were indeterminate, taxation at the maximum marginal rate under Section 164 was rightly applied.
Understand 47(xiii) of the Income-tax Act: Conversion of a firm or LLP into a company is tax-neutral if four conditions are met. Breach triggers clawback on the company, not partners.
The ITAT confirmed the deletion of a ₹72 crore addition made under Section 143(1) by the CPC, which resulted from a tax auditor’s inadvertent reporting error in Form 3CD (using the opening instead of the closing inventory). The ruling established that the CIT(A) can directly verify evidence and grant relief for such genuine clerical mistakes without remanding the case to the AO.
The Tribunal deleted the unexplained investment (Section 69) and cash interest (Section 69A) additions, emphasizing that unsigned, vague slips and digital data, where the parties were not confronted and no independent verification was done, have no evidentiary value in search assessment law. This aligns with Supreme Court rulings on the invalidity of additions based on non-speaking loose sheets.
ITAT Delhi remands trust registration u/s 12A denial after finding the rejection was ex-parte and non-compliance was due to the previous counsel’s failure.
The ITAT deleted a Rs. 23.30 Lakh protective addition made in the firm’s hands under Section 68, as the corresponding cash deposit had already been offered to tax by the partners. The Tribunal ruled that once the real recipient (partners) has paid tax, the protective assessment on the firm becomes redundant and cannot lead to double taxation.
The Tribunal directed the AO to treat the sales tax subsidy as a capital receipt, finding its purpose was to promote industrialization in backward regions, not subsidize production. The ITAT also deleted the Section 14A disallowance, confirming the taxpayer had sufficient own funds.
ITAT Mumbai upholds CIT(A)’s decision to restrict lakh addition to 1% in a client code modification case, ruling the assessee acted solely as a broker, not a beneficiary.
