The ITAT held that the AO could not deny TDR cost in both AY 2018–19 and AY 2020–21, directing allowance of the deduction. Authorities cannot blow hot and cold on the same issue across years.
The Tribunal allowed the assessee’s appeal for re-examination of a section 36(1)(va) addition due to inadvertent error in the original audit report. The matter was restored to the AO to pass a speaking order. This highlights the importance of rectifying audit errors to prevent wrongful income additions.
Understand the statutory time limits for filings, applications, approvals, and settlement processes under the Income-tax Act, including key compliance deadlines.
Supreme Court rulings in Wipro and Shriram Investments mandate strict adherence to return filing deadlines: fresh claims/withdrawals of exemptions (like Sec 10B) via revised returns filed after the original due date are invalid. Appellate authorities retain power to admit new claims.
Bombay High Court held that no hypothetical income of the assessee could have been brought to tax. Accordingly, income not accrued due to cancellation of sale agreement. Thus, order upheld and appeal of revenue dismissed.
ITAT Delhi ruled that Section 50C, which allows revaluing property based on circle rates, applies only to the seller in a transfer, not the buyer in a slump sale governed by Section 50B. The Tribunal held that goodwill is depreciable, but its value must be verified by the Departmental Valuation Officer (DVO).
The case addressed the disallowance of Rs.7.86 Cr treated as unexplained cash credit due to a sharp increase in proprietor’s capital shown in the tax return. The ITAT set aside the addition, finding a prima facie case of mere misclassification of partner overdrawn balances as capital, which should not be automatically treated as new unexplained income under S 68.
ITAT Hyderabad held that exemption under section 10(1) of the Income Tax Act towards income derived from sale of foundation seeds as agricultural income allowed. Accordingly, appeal of revenue dismissed and order of CIT(A) upheld.
ITAT Kolkata held that penalty paid to private entities/ third parties towards breach of contract is the usual course of business and doesn’t involve payment of penalty for infraction of any law hence disallowance made under Explanation to Section 37(1) of the Income Tax Act is unwarranted.
ITAT Delhi deletes AO’s ad hoc 50% expense disallowance and excess vessel cost addition for JITF Waterways. Upholds CIT(A)’s reliance on S43(1) Expl. (6) for asset cost.
