The issue was whether TDS credit can be denied when interest income is adjusted against capital work-in-progress. ITAT held that once income is indirectly recognised by reducing CWIP, corresponding TDS credit cannot be refused.
The Tribunal held that solar power generation under a CSR structure is not charitable when the dominant benefit accrues to a single corporate entity. The environmental activity must primarily benefit the public to qualify for Section 12AB registration.
The issue was whether common and ritualistic approval under section 153D can sustain search assessments. ITAT held that mechanical approval without independent application of mind vitiates the entire proceedings.
The issue was whether a reassessment notice issued after 31.03.2021 for AY 2014-15 was within limitation. ITAT held the notice time-barred in light of the Supreme Court’s Rajeev Bansal ruling and quashed the entire reassessment.
It was ruled that a reassessment notice issued after expiry of the extended limitation is void. The takeaway is that delayed action under the new reassessment regime is fatal.
The notice under section 143(2) did not conform to the CBDT-prescribed format. ITAT ruled that a defective notice strikes at jurisdiction and invalidates the assessment.
The Tribunal held that revision under section 263 cannot introduce issues outside the original limited scrutiny mandate. The key takeaway is that the PCIT cannot widen the inquiry beyond CASS-selected parameters.
The Tribunal held that cash deposits arising from genuine sales already recorded in books cannot be taxed again as unexplained money. The key takeaway is that such additions amount to impermissible double taxation.
The dispute concerned denial of exemption due to belated filing of Form-10B. ITAT held the delay was not fatal and directed fresh consideration in light of the CBDT circular.
It was ruled that substituting sale consideration with stamp duty value during CPC processing is impermissible. Such action deprives taxpayers of the statutory right to seek DVO valuation.
