ITAT Delhi held that the assessee was covered under the search proceedings even though its name did not specifically appear in the panchnama because the warrant referred to “& Ors.” The Tribunal therefore upheld jurisdiction under Section 153A.
Bangalore ITAT ruled that only solar days and not cumulative man-days should be considered while determining the existence of a Permanent Establishment under the India-Saudi Arabia DTAA. Since the assessee’s stay was only 90 days, no PE was held to exist in India.
SC examined nature of amounts received from an AOP and upheld findings that receipts constituted profit share rather than revenue share. Court noted that such income could not be taxed again in member’s hands.
The Rajasthan High Court held that the benefit of Section 115BAA could not be denied when Form 10-IC was filed within the period permitted under CBDT Circulars. The Court ruled that procedural delay could not defeat a clearly exercised tax option.
The Court held that the petitioner had no connection with the entities or individuals from whose devices the disputed material was recovered. The reassessment notices were set aside for lack of nexus.
The Court held that a document dated 2017 could not reasonably be linked to a land transaction executed in 2021 without supporting evidence. The absence of a live nexus rendered the reassessment invalid.
The petitioner stated that reassessment notices were not acted upon because the auditor failed to inform it about the proceedings. The Court allowed fresh adjudication and restored the matter to the Section 148A(b) stage.
The Gujarat High Court set aside reassessment proceedings after finding that the Income Tax Department relied on an undated and uninvestigated complaint. The Court held that reopening based on conjectures and unsupported material could not be sustained.
The Delhi High Court held that a reassessment notice without physical signature remains valid when the name and designation of the Assessing Officer are clearly mentioned. The Court ruled that Section 282A(2) recognizes such authentication in the digital era.
Court upheld the validity of the Section 148 notice but set aside the assessment order after finding that notices were sent to an old email address, resulting in denial of adequate opportunity to the assessee.
