ITAT Mumbai held that marketing and advertisement expenses incurred to promote products on an online retail platform are revenue in nature since they relate to expansion of an existing business.
ITAT Ahmedabad held that upward adjustment on account of notional interest on outstanding receivables rightly deleted since TNMM has been applied and working capital adjustment has been given while benchmarking the main international transaction.
ITAT Mumbai held that deduction under Section 80JJAA cannot be allowed when not claimed in the original return of income. Section 80A(5) bars such belated claims raised for the first time before appellate authorities.
ITAT ruled that once the Assessing Officer makes no addition on the issue forming the basis of reopening, other additions cannot survive. MAT demand under Section 115JB was therefore struck down as unlawful.
ITAT held that penalty under Section 271(1)(c) cannot survive where tax is ultimately levied under Section 115JB. Additions under normal provisions did not result in tax evasion.
The ITAT Bangalore held that penalty under Section 270A for alleged underreporting and misreporting of income could not survive once the Karnataka High Court condoned the delay in filing the return and restored the assessee’s eligibility for deduction under Section 80IA.
The Tribunal ruled that reopening based merely on audit objection without independent application of mind is unsustainable. An audit note cannot replace the Assessing Officers reasoned belief.
The Tribunal ruled that once the Assessing Officer scrutinized the Section 10AA claim and R&D allocation, revision cannot be invoked. Section 263 cannot be used to re-examine issues already verified during assessment.
ITAT Mumbai held that balancing figure between the slump sale consideration and the value of identifiable tangible assets represents goodwill or commercial rights in the nature of an intangible asset, and depreciation thereon is allowable under section 32(1)(ii) of the Income Tax Act.
ITAT Chennai held that disallowance in terms of section 14A of the Income Tax Act read with rule 8D restricted to the extent of investment which yielded exempt income. Accordingly, disallowance restricted and appeal partly allowed.
