The ITAT Chandigarh ruled that receipts from sale of fly ash constituted taxable business income as they arose directly from the assessees power generation activity. The Tribunal held that subsequent credit to a statutory fund amounted only to application of income.
Mumbai ITAT held that reassessment under Section 147 cannot be initiated merely by reviewing records already examined during original scrutiny. Absence of fresh tangible material made the reopening legally invalid.
The ITAT held that mere disclosure of undisclosed income during search is insufficient for immunity under Section 271AAA unless the assessee substantiates the manner in which such income was derived.
The ITAT held that CSR expenditure disallowed as business expenditure under Section 37(1) can still qualify for deduction under Section 80G if statutory conditions are satisfied. Revision under Section 263 was accordingly quashed.

The Mumbai ITAT held that no separate addition for alleged bogus purchases can be made where the assessee has already disclosed a higher gross profit on disputed transactions. The Tribunal relied on Bombay High Court rulings limiting additions only to differential GP.
The ITAT Delhi held that the upload date of DRP directions on the ITBA portal must be considered for computing limitation under Section 144C(13). Since the final assessment order was passed beyond the prescribed period, the assessment was quashed as time-barred.
ITAT Delhi held that amounts received from encashment of bank guarantees could not be treated as taxable income where the assessee acted only as custodian of government money. The Tribunal followed earlier rulings in the assessee’s own case and dismissed the Revenue’s appeal.
The ITAT Chandigarh held that additions under Section 68 could not be sustained where the Assessing Officer failed to conduct independent inquiry or verification of creditors.
