The High Court held that issuing a demand notice along with a draft assessment order violated the mandatory procedure under Section 144C. Since the assessment had effectively been completed at the draft stage, the reassessment orders were quashed.
The ITAT Ahmedabad held that ad hoc disallowance of business expenditure cannot be sustained when audited books are accepted and no specific defects or bogus expenses are identified. The Tribunal deleted the entire 10% estimated addition.
The Delhi ITAT held that rejection of books under Section 145(3) was unjustified where the tax authorities failed to identify specific discrepancies. The Tribunal deleted the profit estimation-based addition and emphasized the need for concrete defects before rejecting accounts.
The Tribunal ruled that vague information and an excel sheet prepared by the Investigation Wing could not satisfy the statutory requirement of reason to believe under Section 147. It emphasized that reassessment powers cannot be exercised on mere suspicion. The notice issued under Section 148 was therefore quashed.
ITAT Mumbai noted that the excel sheets relied upon by the Revenue had not been established in accordance with legal requirements governing electronic evidence. Since the material lacked evidentiary support, the addition for Alleged On-Money Payment could not survive.
The ITAT Delhi held that reassessment under Section 147 was invalid because the Assessing Officer merely relied on an investigation report without applying independent mind. The Tribunal ruled that such material did not establish a valid reason to believe that income had escaped assessment.
ITAT Delhi held that television channel and content owner companies could not be compared with a content distribution business. The Tribunal directed exclusion of such entities from the transfer pricing comparables list.
ITAT Mumbai held that distribution fees paid to associated enterprises could not be treated as royalty. The Tribunal followed earlier decisions and directed fresh transfer pricing analysis based on proper comparables.
TAT Mumbai held that additions under Sections 68 and 69C could not be sustained where the Revenue failed to establish any connection between the assessee and alleged price-rigging operators. The Tribunal found that the transactions were supported by demat records, banking documents, and stock exchange evidence. The LTCG exemption under Section 10(38) was restored.
ITAT Mumbai upheld the order deleting the addition made on account of alleged unexplained cash credits arising from share sale proceeds. The Revenues challenge against the relief granted to the assessee was rejected.
