The ITAT struck down the additions, observing that the AO’s jurisdiction was potentially vitiated by a mechanical, consolidated approval for reopening, and the additions themselves relied solely on an uncorroborated statement and rough papers. The ruling confirms that unverified, rough documents lack sufficient evidentiary value to sustain income additions.
The ITAT Ahmedabad deleted a Rs.7.46 lakh disallowance of employees’ PF contribution, ruling that payment made on the next working day is timely when the statutory due date falls on a Sunday. The ruling applied Section 10 of the General Clauses Act, confirming that the delay was valid and unavoidable.
ITAT Mumbai deleted a Rs.34.65 crore addition under Section 68 for unsecured loans, ruling that requirement to prove source of source only applies from A.Y. 2013-14 onwards. Tribunal held that proving the identity, genuineness, and creditworthiness of loan creditors was sufficient for year under appeal.
The ITAT Delhi ruled that the reassessment was invalid because the issue of setting off prior-year speculative losses was already examined in the original scrutiny assessment. The quashing relied on the “change of opinion” doctrine, as the AO used no new tangible material to reopen the case.
The CBDT extended the deadline for filing tax audit reports (to Nov 10, 2025) and ITRs for audited taxpayers (to Dec 10, 2025) for AY 2025-26. This relief addresses judicial mandates, natural disaster disruptions, e-filing portal glitches, and the complex compliance burden on businesses, facilitating accurate tax filing.
ITAT Delhi held that reopening beyond four years requires sanction from the Principal Commissioner or Commissioner. Approval taken from the Joint Commissioner rendered the reassessment invalid.

ITAT Chandigarh held that reopening of assessment under section 148 of the Income Tax Act merely on the basis of ‘reasons to suspect’ rather than on ‘reason to believe’ is invalid in the eye of law. Held that passive reliance on third-party intelligence would render the reopening invalid as it reflected merely a ‘reason to suspect’.
