ITAT Mumbai ruled that once reassessment proceedings are quashed as void ab initio, the satisfaction recorded therein for initiating penalty proceedings cannot survive independently. The Tribunal relied on the Supreme Court ruling in Jaya Lakshmi Rice Mills.
The ITAT Chandigarh held that reassessment proceedings initiated under an incorrect and obsolete PAN suffered from a jurisdictional defect. The Tribunal ruled that failure to consider the assessee’s reply under Section 148A invalidated the reassessment proceedings.
The ITAT Ahmedabad restored reassessment proceedings after the assessee produced documents showing disputed property sales and pending civil litigation. The Tribunal held that additions relating to capital gains required fresh examination where sale transactions themselves were contested.
ITAT Nagpur held that reassessment proceedings cannot survive without issuance of a mandatory notice under Section 143(2). The Tribunal ruled that participation by the assessee does not cure complete absence of statutory notice.
Mumbai ITAT held that genuine outstanding trade liabilities arising from accepted business transactions cannot be treated as unexplained cash credits under Section 68. The Tribunal ruled that once purchases and expenses are accepted, corresponding creditor balances cannot be taxed separately.
The ITAT Ahmedabad held that co-operative banks qualify as co-operative societies for purposes of Section 80P(2)(d). The Tribunal allowed deduction on interest income earned from deposits with co-operative banks following Gujarat High Court rulings.
The Delhi High Court set aside an assessment order after finding that the Assessing Officer failed to consider the assessee’s reply filed on the same date as the order. The Court held that this violated principles of natural justice.
TAT Chandigarh held that reassessment proceedings were invalid because the property was actually purchased from a different company than the one referred to in the recorded reasons. The Tribunal found absence of any live nexus between the assessee and the alleged incriminating material.
The Tribunal held that documents relating to payments made to suppliers such as TS MARKFED and Sri Venkateshwara Agencies required proper verification. The case was remanded to the AO for fresh adjudication.
Pune ITAT remanded the matter after the assessee explained that responses meant for the assessment appeal were inadvertently uploaded in the penalty appeal portal.
