The contention that the provisions of section 56(1)(v) regarding the amount received from the relative was not there before Revenue authorities. Moreover it is to be established that the person who gifted money is assessee’s sister as claimed. It was also to be established that the said sister is working as Dentist in U.K. The audit certificate placed before the CIT (A) with reference to the creditworthiness should have been admitted and examined by the CIT (A) which was not done.
There is no dispute to the fact that as per sec. 251(1) of the Act, the ld. C.I.T.(A) has no power to set aside any matter to the file of ld. A.O. for fresh verification and adjudication. Therefore, considering the fact that some additional evidence was admitted by the ld. C.I.T.(A) and he has set aside some issues to the file of ld. A.O. u/s. 251(1) of the Act, which he is not empowered to do, we deem it proper to set aside the orders of the authorities below and remit the issues to the file of ld. A.O. for fresh adjudication in accordance with law.
In the case of Mukherjee Estate P. Ltd. reported in 244 ITR 1, the Hon’ble Calcutta High Court has held that income on account of display of hoardings on the top of the building for advertisement purposes to display the advertisement is not an income from house property as hoardings do not form part of the building which is income from the house property and other parts of the building.
The contention of the learned Sr.AR to the effect that the Revenue moved rectification application in the year 2011 i.e. after around 3 years from the date of passing of the Tribunal order u/s 254(1), belies the Revenue’s stand of such ground having been in fact taken, is without any force. When section 254(2) provides a period of limitation of four years from the date of passing of the order, it implies that any rectification application moved within this statutory period of four years requires consideration. As the instant application u/s.254(2) is well within the stipulated period, in our considered opinion, there is no justification in not accepting it.
It is observed that the ld. CIT(A) was of the view that since in the quantum appeal, the matter was set aside and sent back to the file of the ld. CIT(A) by the Hon’ble Tribunal vide its order dated 29.12.2010, the penalty order of the ld. AO dated 23.03.2010 will not survive. In fact, the Hon’ble Tribunal in the quantum appeal had restored the matter back to the file of the ld. CIT(A) for deciding the issue afresh. In such circumstances, we are of the considered view that the penalty order should be considered in the light of the quantum appeal decided by the ld. CIT(A). For this reason, we set aside the order of the ld. CIT(A) dated 13.09.2011 and restore the matter back to the file of the ld. CIT(A) to consider the penalty order of the ld. AO in the light of his findings in the quantum appeal.

Undisputed facts are that the assessee is a plot society and not a flat society. Thus, notification dated 9th August 2001, issued by Govt. of Maharashtra, does not apply to the facts of the case. The first appellate authority had followed the judgment of Hon’ble Jurisdictional High Court in Sind Co. Operative Housing Society, [2009] 26 DTR 149 (Bom.), and granted relief to the assessee. As all the receipts are admittedly from the members, we have to necessarily uphold the order of the first appellate authority and dismiss the appeal of the Revenue.
Incomplete or under Construction Building not liable to wealth tax- Incomplete building of the assessee neither falls within the definition of a building, as contemplated under section 2(ea) of the Act, nor within the purview of urban land as excluded by Explanation 1(b) of the Wealth Tax Act.
ITAT held that a right acquired by the taxpayer to convert advance given into equity shares falls under the definition of ‘Capital Assets’ as per Section 2(14) Income-tax Act,1961 (the Act). Accordingly, the compensation received for foregoing right to acquire equity shares is a transfer of ‘Capital Assets’ and is taxable as capital gain under the Act.
