The case focuses on systemic delays and technical shortcomings in the e-filing system. The Court directed the Department to file an affidavit addressing these concerns.
The Court held that reliable DNA profiling and medical evidence can independently establish guilt. It ruled that absence of a strong “last seen” theory does not weaken a complete chain of scientific evidence.
The case examined reopening based on a prior disallowance under Section 80IB(10). The Court found that the disallowance had already been reversed by appellate authorities. Therefore, reopening based on the same ground was held invalid.
The High Court held that reinsurance premiums paid to non-residents are not taxable in India and no TDS is required. It upheld Tribunal findings and rejected Revenue’s challenge across multiple years.
