The Tribunal held that the special tax regime under Section 115BBE is confined to additions made under Sections 68 to 69D. Additions arising under normal provisions of the Act cannot automatically attract higher taxation.
The Tribunal ruled that proportionate interest disallowance under Section 36(1)(iii) cannot be sustained when the assessee has adequate reserves and interest-free funds to cover the advances. The Revenue failed to rebut the presumption recognized by higher courts.
The Tribunal found that the assessee had duly complied with statutory requirements by obtaining approval after modifying its objects. The CIT(E)’s finding of non-compliance was therefore contrary to the record. Renewal of registration was directed in the absence of any adverse findings on charitable activities.

The ITAT held that registration under Sections 12AA/12AB cannot be cancelled when the trust continues to genuinely carry out its educational objects. Alleged fund diversion and related-party transactions must be examined during assessment and taxation proceedings instead.

When an educational society was found to be substantially engaged in genuine charitable activities, its exemption could not be denied under Section 13(1)(b) simply because a few specific expenditures happened to benefit individuals from a particular religious community.
