The Tribunal found that the CIT(A) did not examine or reason with respect to substantial documentary evidence submitted by the assessee. The case was remanded to the AO for fresh adjudication to ensure proper evaluation of bank statements, ledger entries, and receipts.
ITAT condones delay in filing appeal as the assessee’s police duties prevented timely submission, restoring the matter for adjudication on merits.
ITAT Mumbai ruled that non-resident investments sourced from foreign salary cannot be treated as unexplained income, deleting ₹2 crore addition under Section 69.
The ITAT Delhi invalidated the reopening of an income tax assessment because the assessee had filed a complete return and the AO failed to record valid reasons, highlighting the need for proper statutory compliance in reassessment.
The ITAT Raipur restored the appeal regarding deletion of ₹15.81 crore addition, highlighting procedural lapses by CIT(A) in accepting new evidence without remand. Key takeaway: AO’s verification is crucial before deleting large additions.
ITAT held that section 263 cannot be invoked unless the PCIT pinpoints an actual error in the AO’s order; since no specific mistake was shown, the revision was invalid.
The Tribunal held that reassessment was invalid since the original scrutiny had already examined the issue and no fresh information indicating suppression or omission was found. Reopening based solely on a change of opinion was rejected. The ruling reinforces that section 147 requires tangible new material.
The Tribunal ruled that authorities erred by ignoring the sale deed, receipt, and bank statements solely due to a technical lapse in return filing. Since the documents clearly established the source of cash, the addition could not survive. The order directed deletion of the section 69A addition.
Reassessment proceedings initiated with approval from the wrong authority were held invalid. Courts reiterated that Section 151(ii) specifies the competent sanctioning authority for notices issued after three years, leading to quashing of the assessment and related demand.
ITAT Delhi held that the PCIT’s sanction under section 151 was granted before the AO recorded reasons to reopen the assessment, violating mandatory procedural requirements. As the jurisdictional defect went to the root, the section 148 notice and entire section 147 reassessment were declared void ab initio.
