The issue was whether the entire purchase amount could be added under Section 69C based solely on an entry-operator’s denial. The Tribunal ruled that since sales were accepted and books not rejected, only a 10% estimated disallowance was justified.
The issue was whether the entire amount of alleged bogus purchases could be disallowed under Section 69C. ITAT Mumbai held that in the absence of corroborative evidence, only the profit element can be taxed, restricting the addition to 6%.
The ITAT held that reassessment notices issued by the Jurisdictional AO after 29.03.2022 are void. Under the faceless reassessment scheme, only the Faceless AO has jurisdiction to act.
The Tribunal emphasized that where land cost is separately reflected, indexation must be granted. It remanded the matter to verify records and recompute capital gains accordingly, ensuring lawful assessment.
The Tribunal ruled that reassessment cannot survive when the final addition departs from the original Section 148A notice. Consistency of information throughout the reopening process is mandatory.
The Tribunal ruled that exemption for charitable trusts cannot be denied merely due to belated filing of Form 10B. It reaffirmed that the requirement is directory, not mandatory, when the audit report is eventually furnished.
The Tribunal ruled that ad hoc disallowance is unsustainable when books are not rejected. Disallowance was reduced to 8% based on facts and past practice.
Failure to demonstrate a dated approval under Section 151 proved fatal to the Revenue’s case. The decision underscores strict compliance in reopening assessments.
