Case Law Details
Padmalatha Tama Vs ITO (ITAT Hyderabad)
The assessee has received gift from her daughter. The AO has verified the details of this transaction by asking the assessee to file the bank statement and confirmation from her. The same was filed before the AO. The transaction was done by T. Veena only through banking channel. Ms. T. Veena also filed the sources for the funds received by her i.e. she had taken loan from Mr. P. Srinu Babu and P. Rajendra. As far as, assessee is concerned, the identity, creditworthiness and genuineness were proved. The AO and CIT(A) have doubted the creditworthiness of assessee’s daughter. It is irrelevant for the assessee to prove as the assessee has brought on record not only the source but source of source also. It is for the revenue to initiate proceedings in the case of T. Veena, if they are not satisfied with the submission of Ms. T. Veena. As far as the assessee is concerned, she had received the gift from her daughter through banking channel, hence, she has proved identity and genuineness of the transaction and for creditworthiness, she had brought on record the bank statement & PAN of her daughter. Therefore, assessee has discharged her part of duty.
