Reassessment was quashed as the statutory process under the faceless regime was not followed end-to-end by the same authority. Such jurisdictional inconsistency vitiates the entire proceedings.
The ITAT Chennai held a reassessment notice under section 148 invalid as it was issued after the statutory limitation expired, emphasizing strict compliance with time limits.
The Tribunal held that reassessment initiated after three years was void because approval was taken from an incompetent authority. The key takeaway is strict compliance with section 151(ii) is mandatory and jurisdictional.
The revision questioned deduction on interest income allowed under section 80P. The Tribunal held that where the AO adopts a legally plausible view after enquiry, section 263 cannot be invoked.
The Tribunal held that CSR contributions received with strict donor directions and refund obligations may constitute tied-up grants rather than freely available income. Such funds require factual examination before taxing them under section 11.
ITAT Rajkot held that there is no escapement of income or loss of revenue since tax paid on the basis of consolidated profit of both the partnership firm and hence reassessment proceedings are not sustainable. Accordingly, appeal of revenue is dismissed.
The Tribunal ruled that where more than three years have elapsed, sanction must come from the Principal Chief Commissioner. Approval by the Principal Commissioner renders the reassessment void ab initio.
Applying a liberal approach, the tribunal condoned delay in appeal filing and examined the jurisdictional defect. Since reopening was initiated by the wrong authority, the assessment could not survive.
The tribunal held that land registered in an individual’s name but fully paid by a society amounts to receipt of property without consideration. Such benefit is taxable as income under section 56(2)(vii).
he tribunal held that reassessment notices issued by the jurisdictional assessing officer instead of the faceless authority violate the mandatory faceless assessment framework. Such jurisdictional defects render the entire reassessment proceedings void ab initio.
