The Mumbai ITAT held that reassessment initiated beyond three years was invalid because the alleged escaped income was only ₹5 lakh, far below the ₹50 lakh requirement under Section 149(1)(b). As a result, the reassessment and consequential assessment order were quashed.
The assessee had fully disclosed the share transactions and claimed exemption under Section 10(38) in the original return. The ITAT ruled that reopening was unsustainable because the reasons recorded did not demonstrate how any income had actually escaped assessment.
The ITAT Lucknow held that acute depression prevented timely compliance with statutory notices and amounted to a reasonable cause under Section 273B. Consequently, the penalty under Section 272A(1)(d) was deleted.
The assessee challenged an ex parte reassessment order that treated property investment as unexplained under Section 69. ITAT held that adequate opportunity should be provided before sustaining substantial additions and remanded the matter for fresh adjudication.
The Tribunal ruled that condonation of delay by the competent authority removes the statutory obstacle created by Section 80AC for late-filed returns. As a result, the assessee’s claim for deduction under Section 80P must be reconsidered in accordance with law.
The Tribunal sent the issue of deduction for political donations back to the Assessing Officer after finding that bank transaction details had not been properly verified. Fresh adjudication was directed after giving the assessee an opportunity of hearing.
The Tribunal found that CBDT notifications issued under TOLA extended the period for departmental actions, including rectification proceedings, thereby saving the order from being time-barred.
The Tribunal held that for AY 2015-16, the six-year limitation period under the unamended law expired on 31.03.2022. Since the notice under Section 148 was issued on 23.04.2022, it was time-barred. The reassessment proceedings and consequential assessment order were therefore quashed.
The assessee contended that cash deposits in the bank account represented sales proceeds from a medicine business. The ITAT remanded the matter to the Assessing Officer to verify turnover details and determine taxable income on a reasonable basis.
The Pune ITAT held that estimating net profit at 18% of contract receipts was excessive in the absence of supporting material. Applying principles similar to presumptive taxation under Section 44AD, the Tribunal restricted the profit rate to 8% and granted substantial relief.
