The AO mechanically reopened the case and made a 2.86 crore addition based only on an investigation alert, without being able to identify the alleged property. The ITAT upheld the quashing of the entire proceeding, ruling that simple reproduction of external information, without independent application of mind or tangible evidence, invalidates the reassessment notice.
The AO made a protective addition of Rs. 9.70 crore based solely on the uncorroborated statement of a seller recorded during a search. The ITAT deleted the addition, ruling that a bare Section 132(4) statement without any corroborative evidence (like seized material, book entries, or proof of delivery) is insufficient to prove the cash transaction against a third party.
Description: The Tribunal allowed the appeal of an Exemption-registered society that challenged its reassessment on the legal ground that the AO failed to issue a Section 143(2) notice. The ruling confirms that this notice is mandatory for assumption of jurisdiction under Section 143(3) read with 47, even if the return was filed belatedly.
The AO made massive ex-parte additions under Section 69A after the assessee failed to respond to notices sent to an incorrect email ID of his deceased former CA. The ITAT upheld the CIT(A)’s decision to set aside the ex-parte assessment for fresh adjudication, utilizing the Finance Act 2024 amendment to Section 251, which grants the CIT(A) the power to remit Section 144 best judgment assessments.
The Kerala High Court ruled that a Tribunal’s observation to assess under S. 68 is non-binding, granting the assessee an “open remit” to challenge the cash credit addition.
ITAT Visakhapatnam, in case of Subbarao Jaladi v. ITO, set aside an addition of ₹6,37,16,100/- made under Section 69 of Income Tax Act, 1961, regarding unexplained bank cash deposits.
The Karnataka High Court rejected a Revenue appeal concerning the taxability of Fees for Technical Services (FTS) under the India-USA DTAA due to the tax effect being below the ₹2 Crore threshold set by the CBDT’s latest circular.
Ahmedabad ITAT set aside an ex-parte order confirming ₹1.63 Cr tax additions against a real estate operator, ruling that the CIT(A) failed to consider the assessee’s written submissions and the AO’s Remand Report.
The Ahmedabad ITAT set aside a ₹1 lakh penalty under Section 271BA, ruling that failure to electronically file the Form 3CEB transfer pricing report was a mere technical and procedural default. Crucially, the report was prepared before the search and later physically filed with the Transfer Pricing Officer (TPO).
The Kerala High Court has temporarily halted income tax recovery proceedings against Palode Service Co-Operative Bank Ltd a Primary Agricultural Credit Society. The Kerala High Court stayed income tax recovery proceedings against a Primary Agricultural Credit Society, citing a pending appeal where the core tax issue is allegedly covered by the Supreme Court’s Mavilayi Service Co-Operative Bank judgment.
