The Court finds that the concurrent findings of both the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeal) and the ITAT are that the consistent treatment of the said transactions in the books of accounts of the Assessee and the volume and frequency of such transactions did not justify treating the income as business income.
Tribunal formed an opinion where once the account books are expected to be maintained in the prescribed accounting standard, the assessing officer could not have made any additions towards the sale of rice treating it to be outside the books of accounts or towards investing in stock of rice and wheat outside the books of accounts.

Section 142 (2A) of the Act anticipates timely submission of the report of the Special Auditor. The Auditor who is to conduct special audit in terms of Section 142 (2) of the Act is not an auditor of the choice of the Assessee. The auditor is nominated by the Revenue and his work is not […]
Recently, in Asian Polymers Vs. Commissioner Of Trade & Taxes & Anr, the Delhi High Court reiterated that re-assessment cannot be used as a tool for causing delay in processing the refund applications.
