Assessee was entitled to deduction under section 54F in respect of the entire value of all 50 residential flats receivable under the Joint Development Agreement. Prior to the amendment effective from 01.04.2015, exemption under section 54F could not be restricted merely because the investment was made in multiple residential units.
The Tribunal deleted the addition after finding that the taxpayer had furnished complete documentary evidence of purchase and sale of shares. The ruling emphasizes that suspicion, however strong, cannot replace legally admissible evidence.
ITAT Delhi held that reassessment based solely on Investigation Wing reports without independent enquiry is invalid. The ruling emphasizes that borrowed satisfaction cannot justify reopening under Section 147.
Where assessee substantiated purchase, holding and sale of shares of YICL through documentary evidence, DEMAT records, contract notes, STT payments and banking transactions, and Revenue failed to establish any nexus between assessee and alleged price-rigging operators, exemption under section 10(38) could not be denied merely on suspicion or penny-stock allegations.
Mumbai ITAT ruled that where a capital asset was acquired before 01.04.2001, the claim for adopting fair market value as on that date must be examined on merits. The key takeaway is that statutory valuation rights cannot be rejected on technical grounds alone.
The assessee had fully disclosed the share transactions and claimed exemption under Section 10(38) in the original return. The ITAT ruled that reopening was unsustainable because the reasons recorded did not demonstrate how any income had actually escaped assessment.
The Tribunal ruled that long-term capital gains taxable under Section 112 form part of total income and qualify for Section 87A rebate if the prescribed income limit is satisfied. It also held that Finance Act 2025 amendments restricting the rebate are prospective.
Bangalore ITAT held that interest paid on a housing loan can be treated as part of the cost of acquisition where no deduction was claimed under house property income. The Tribunal directed the AO to allow indexed benefit on such interest expenditure.
The Tribunal ruled that bonus shares sold after being held for more than 12 months were taxable as exempt long-term capital gains and not business income. The assessees treatment of bonus shares as investments was accepted.
ITAT Ahmedabad held that delivery-based share transactions shown as investments in books could not be treated as business income without supporting evidence. The Tribunal upheld capital gains treatment for both STCG and LTCG.
