Assessee directed by Madras HC to file representation for release of blocked funds w.r.t. alleged non-payment of GST & excess ITC availment
HC held that, providing opportunity of hearing would ensure observance of rules of natural justice and allow Respondent to pass appropriate and reasoned orders in order to serve interest of justice and allow a better appreciation to arise at appeal stage.
HC quashed section 148 notice issued without sufficient reasons to initiate reassessment proceedings without satisfying conditions precedent under Section 147
Order passed without providing opportunity of personal hearing to assessee. Hence, violative of principles of natural justice. Held that, SCN was vague & cryptic in nature and orders passed were beyond scope of SCN.
Revenue Department could only re-open an assessment beyond four years, if there was a failure on the part of assessee to disclose material facts fully and truly and not on the basis of reason to believe without satisfying jurisdictional condition required under provisions of Section 147
ITAT delete penalty levied for failure to get accounts audited and for filing tax audit report belatedly, on the grounds that the assessee was prevented by reasonable cause due to its pathetic condition and heavy losses incurred in its business.
Income which was sought to be taxed in the hands of the assessee had already been taxed as income in the hands of another entity so no penalty leviable
GST Registration Cancellation order is not only non-speaking but also cryptic in nature, which entails penal and pecuniary consequences and Revenue Department ought to have referred to contents of SCN and have followed principles of natural justice.
HC held that it is not the object of GST law to curtail right of the assessee to carry out business. Further restored GST registration of assessee which was cancelled due to non-filing of GST returns.
ITAT held that, transfer of property only takes place when either possession of property is transferred or sale deed is executed and documents like unregistered ‘Banakhat’ or power of attorney are not substitute of sale deed.
