The Tribunal held that ad hoc disallowance of labour expenses without concrete evidence is unsustainable. It ruled that suspicion alone cannot justify additions when proper documentation exists.
The tribunal found that STCG may have been counted twice, inflating taxable income. It directed verification and recomputation by the Assessing Officer. The ruling highlights correction of computational errors.
The issue involved additions for alleged cash payments based on third-party data and statements. ITAT deleted the additions, holding that no independent evidence or cross-examination opportunity was provided.
The tribunal set aside excessive addition by recognizing both the allotment agreement and joint ownership. It directed proportionate taxation and correct valuation basis. The ruling promotes fairness in assessments.
The tribunal allowed adoption of stamp value as on the agreement date instead of registration. It held the proviso to Section 50C is retrospective as it removes hardship. This provides relief in cases of delayed registration.
ITAT held that absence of an explicit irrevocability or dissolution clause is not a valid ground to deny registration under Section 12AB. The ruling directs grant of registration and consequential 80G approval.
ITAT held that statutory transfer of funds to the government is not dividend under Section 2(22). Hence, dividend distribution tax under Section 115-O is not applicable.
ITAT held reassessment invalid due to approval taken from an incorrect authority under Section 151. The ruling confirms that improper sanction makes the entire proceeding void ab initio.
The Tribunal upheld dismissal of appeal for non-payment of tax under Section 249(4)(b). However, it remanded the case after finding that the addition based on Form 26AS may be incorrect.
The Tribunal held that the assessee was not given adequate opportunity to present evidence. The matter was remanded for fresh adjudication considering additional documents.
