Reopening quashed due to change in opinion as final order confirmed addition u/s 68 instead of alleged section 56

December 21, 2021 1398 Views 0 comment Print

In our view no addition under section 68 of the Act on account of share capital could have been made only if addition under section 56 of the Act on share premium was also made. This is because Assessing Officer had no reasons to belief that income has escaped assessment under section 68 of the Act being cash credit on account of share premium or share application money or share capital as the case may be.

AO cannot recommend section 263 revision to CIT

December 21, 2021 1770 Views 0 comment Print

If AO, after passing an assessment order, finds something amiss in it to the detriment of the Revenue, he has ample power to either reassess the earlier assessment in terms of section 147 or carry out rectification u/s 154 of the Act. He can’t usurp the power of the CIT and recommend a revision.

CIT cannot revise issue which is beyond the scope of rectification

December 21, 2021 1299 Views 0 comment Print

The quantification of loss, which is well beyond the limited scope of ‘mistake apparent on record’ under section 154], could not have been disturbed in the proceedings under section 154, and what cannot be done under section 154, cannot be done under section 263 r.w.s. 154 either.

December 17, 2021 5058 Views 0 comment Print

A member of the ‘HUF’ has a pre-existing right in the family properties. A Coparcener has a pre-existing right and interest in the property and can demand partition also, however, the other members of the ‘HUF’ have right to be maintained out of the ‘HUF’ property. On division, the share in the estate/capital of the ‘HUF’ cannot be treated as income of the recipient, rather, the same will be a capital receipt in his hands.
