Reopening notice under Section 148 was held invalid as the AO ignored co-purchasers’ contributions and granted mechanical approval under Section 151 without application of mind. The Tribunal ruled the reassessment and associated additions null and void.
Tribunal emphasized that unilateral claims for commission and interest from CPRPL are insufficient to attract tax. Taxable income arises only when amounts are truly payable or received.
High Court dismisses writ petition alleging SOP breach in faceless assessment, advising the taxpayer to seek remedy through the statutory appellate process under the Income Tax Act.
ITAT held that Section 263 cannot be invoked when the AO has already examined the issues and applied his mind. Key takeaway: Mere preference for deeper enquiry does not make an assessment erroneous.
The Tribunal held that severance pay received on cessation of employment is taxable as “profits in lieu of salary” under Sec.17(3)(iii). Voluntariness or nomenclature of the payment is irrelevant post-2002 statutory amendment.
The Tribunal upheld deletion of a large cash-credit addition after the AO confirmed in remand that branch sales and cash transfers were genuine. The key takeaway is that once sales are accepted, related cash deposits cannot be taxed under Section 68.
The Tribunal confirmed that unsecured loans of ₹1.77 crore were genuine, supported by account-payee cheques, NBFC registration, bank statements, and confirmations. AO’s additions were based on presumption and ignored documentary evidence, so the deletions were rightly upheld.
The Department could not produce a single document seized from the assessee, relying only on third-party statements, which are not incriminating material. The JCIT’s same-day clearance of multiple assessments without analysis led to the assessments being quashed.
The JCIT granted approval despite receiving only draft orders and no supporting evidence, demonstrating a mechanical process. The Tribunal held that such superficial approval violates judicial standards, leading to the quashing of all assessments.
Tribunal partially allowed Rs. 46.75 lakh cash deposit claim, accepting Rs. 11 lakh while remitting Rs. 35.75 lakh for verification, highlighting the importance of documentary proof for deposits during demonetization.
