The Tribunal held that exemption under Section 13A does not automatically relieve the payer from deducting TDS on interest paid to political parties. It found the earlier High Court ruling relied upon by CIT(A) to be distinguishable. The matter was remitted to the AO to test compliance with the first proviso to Section 201.
The Tribunal held that the CIT(A) acted inconsistently by condoning delay in the quantum appeal but refusing the same in penalty appeals. Since sufficient cause existed and was already recognized, delay in all penalty appeals was condoned. Penalty matters were restored to the AO for reconsideration.
The Tribunal held that CIT(A) misinterpreted a VSVS 2020 declaration for penalty as covering quantum, dismissing the appeal without considering merits. The order was set aside, and the matter remanded for de-novo adjudication. Quantum issues must be assessed independently of VSVS for penalties.
ITAT Agra held that reassessment under Section 144 by JAO is valid even though faceless procedure under Section 144B was generally applicable. The CBDT Circular of 17.03.2022 provided relaxation for cases with expiring limitation. CIT(A)’s non-est finding was set aside, ensuring compliance with procedural exceptions.
The Tribunal found that the AO failed to establish any bogus purchase or sale since the assessee never handled the goods and only received net surplus. Identical findings in earlier years compelled the ITAT to delete the same addition again. The takeaway is that established business patterns cannot be arbitrarily recharacterized as accommodation entries.
The Tribunal held that the assessee cannot be penalised for mistakes of his CA and condoned a two-year delay. The matter was remanded for de novo assessment, reaffirming natural justice principles.
ITAT held that the assessee operated as a commission agent, not a trader, making Section 44AD inapplicable. A reasonable 5% estimation on cash deposits was upheld.
The ITAT ruled that unresolved legal grounds—especially on reassessment validity—must first be decided by the CIT(A). The ₹3.32 crore Section 69A addition is remanded for proper adjudication.
ITAT confirmed Rs.2.92 crore long-term capital gain as the assessee failed to prove that the land sold was used for agriculture, sustaining the AO’s and CIT(A)’s orders.
The Tribunal overturned the dismissal of the appeal for lateness and allowed a full reconsideration of the issues. It emphasized that the delay must not be raised again during adjudication.
