The Tribunal held that once sales are accepted, corresponding purchases cannot be treated as bogus. Disallowance based only on supplier non-compliance was held unsustainable.
The Tribunal held that when sales are accepted as genuine, corresponding purchases cannot be disallowed in entirety. Documentary evidence and bank payments outweighed mere doubts about supplier compliance.
The case examined whether full purchase disallowance was justified without rejecting books of account. The Tribunal held that in such circumstances, only a reasonable profit element could be added.
The Tribunal held that relief based on additional evidence without obtaining a remand report breaches Rule 46A(3). The matter was remanded for fresh adjudication after proper verification.
The issue was whether the appellate order properly dealt with bogus purchase additions. ITAT held that a non-speaking NFAC order violating section 250(6) must be set aside.
ITAT deleted disallowance of depreciation, loan interest, and fuel expenses after finding cars were registered in the company’s name. Ad-hoc personal use disallowance without evidence was held unsustainable.
The High Court upheld the Tribunal’s decision restricting disallowance on alleged bogus purchases to 6 percent. It held that the issue was already settled in the assessee’s own earlier year and raised no substantial question of law.
The Tribunal held that where identical facts existed in earlier years, the addition for alleged bogus purchases must follow past precedent. It restricted the addition to 5 percent, applying the principle of consistency.
The Tribunal held that when corresponding sales are accepted, a full disallowance of alleged bogus purchases is not justified. It restricted the addition to 6% of the purchase value as a reasonable estimate.
ITAT Mumbai held that alleged bogus purchases cannot be disallowed when the assessee provides invoices, receipts, bank proofs, and GST compliance. The ruling confirms that suppliers’ non-filing alone is insufficient for disallowance.
