The issue was whether reassessment could be initiated without material showing income had escaped assessment. The Court held that mere allegations of circuitous transactions were insufficient. The key takeaway is that actual escapement is mandatory under the amended law.
The court upheld restoration of appeals where earlier dismissal was without merits due to settlement proceedings. Delay condonation and remand were held valid with no jurisdictional error.
The Court held that reopening based on wrong assumptions about return filing and without supporting material is invalid. Mechanical recording of reasons cannot confer jurisdiction.
The case addressed the correct head of income for interest earned on staff loans. The court affirmed the Tribunal’s finding that such income arises in the normal course of business and found no ground to interfere.
The Court set aside a reassessment order passed in the name of a deceased assessee, holding that proceedings cannot continue after authorities are informed of death. Fresh proceedings may be initiated against legal representatives as per law.
Reversal ordered due to cancelled registration was set aside once the cancellation itself was undone. The ruling reaffirmed the linkage between valid cancellation and ITC reversal.
The authority rejected the refund citing non-submission of LUT before export. The court found that the clarification allowing ex post facto LUT was ignored and ordered reconsideration.
The Court held that compounding under the Companies Act requires payment by the concerned officer himself and directed correction of records where a third party had paid.
The court held that cancellation for six months’ non-filing could be revoked where the explanation was genuine. Restoration was allowed subject to strict compliance with return filing and payment conditions.
The High Court declined to entertain a writ petition against cancellation of GST registration as an effective statutory remedy existed. The taxpayer was directed to seek revocation before the proper officer.
