Calcutta HC ruled on challenging a Faceless Assessment order, directing the taxpayer to file an appeal when an objection to the 143(2) notice wasn’t raised earlier.
Tribunal observed that AO accepted returned income without any independent examination or inquiry. As major issues like estimation of profit in liquor trade and tax audit requirements were ignored, assessment was held erroneous. Pr. CIT’s revision under Section 263 was sustained.
ITAT Delhi remanded the addition of 12.5% profit on alleged bogus sales because the CIT(A) sustained the amount (₹20.16 lakh) without providing adequate reasoning or opportunity to the assessee. The Tribunal directed the CIT(A) to pass a fresh, speaking order after considering all submissions.
ITAT Delhi condoned a significant delay in filing appeals, ruling the cause was bona fide as the accountant’s linked email ID led to the non-receipt of assessment and penalty notices. The Tribunal set aside the ex-parte assessment and penalty, remanding the case for a fresh hearing on merits.
The ITAT Delhi set aside an addition of Rs.44.50 lakh, alleged as commission income on fund routing transactions, due to the CIT(A)’s failure to pass a speaking order. The Tribunal remanded the case to the AO for a fresh, de novo assessment to verify documents and provide reasoned findings, ensuring compliance with natural justice.
Pune ITAT dismissed a firm’s appeal, confirming the PCIT’s order to tax Rs 19.44 lakh in unexplained cash and stock found in a survey under the stringent Section 115BBE.
The ITAT Delhi allowed the appeal of Sunita Salhotra, quashing the Section 148 notice for AY 2015-16 as barred by the statutory limitation period that expired on March 31, 2022. The Tribunal relied on the Revenue’s concession in the Supreme Court’s Rajiv Bansal case regarding notices issued for this AY on or after April 1, 2021.
ITAT restricted the addition under Section 56(2)(vii)(b) to 50% on a jointly purchased property, preventing double addition as the co-owner was already taxed on the balance.
ITAT restored a disallowance of ₹18.76 Cr under Section 40(a)(ia) for non-deduction of TDS u/s 194Q to CIT(A), granting assessee a fresh opportunity. Mumbai ITAT remanded a tax appeal concerning substantial business purchases, directing CIT(A) to hear assessee on merits for non-compliance.
ITAT Mumbai held that PCIT had no jurisdiction to invoke Section 263 on issues beyond scope of limited scrutiny, setting aside revision order as invalid.
