The ITAT Bangalore held that, from AY 2018-19 onwards, Section 80AC makes timely filing of the return under Section 139(1) a mandatory condition for claiming deductions under Chapter VI-A. A return filed later in response to a Section 148 notice could not revive the claim for deduction under Section 80P.
ITAT Ahmedabad held that repayment of the entire loan with TDS-compliant interest payments undermined the allegation that the loans were accommodation entries. The additions towards interest and commission were deleted.
The Hyderabad ITAT held that incomplete data retrieved from an inoperative computer could not prevail over audited books of account. It deleted the addition after finding no evidence of suppressed receipts or unexplained expenditure.
The ITAT Kolkata held that reassessment completed without issuing the mandatory notice under Section 143(2) was a nullity in law. Since the original assessment was invalid, the revisionary proceedings under Section 263 could not be sustained. The appeal of the assessee was allowed.
The Gujarat High Court held that reopening under Sections 147 and 148 could not be sustained where allowing higher depreciation would not result in any escapement of income chargeable to tax. It ruled that the reassessment was based on a mere change of opinion and quashed the proceedings.
The Mumbai ITAT deleted the addition alleging bogus long-term capital gains from penny stock transactions after finding no evidence linking the assessee to any accommodation entry.
ITAT Ahmedabad held that the tax authorities failed to consider evidence of an earlier agreement and prior payments before invoking Section 56(2)(x). The addition based on the stamp duty value was deleted.
The Mumbai ITAT held that penalty under Section 270A cannot be sustained where income is determined purely on estimation after rejection of books. It also ruled that a show-cause notice failing to specify whether the penalty is for under-reporting or misreporting of income is legally defective and invalid.
ITAT Jaipur held that assessments initiated under Section 153C were time-barred under every possible computation of limitation. The assessment orders were declared void ab initio and quashed.
The Tribunal ruled that filing a return in response to Section 148 does not cure the failure to file the original return within the due date prescribed under Section 139(1). Consequently, the claim for deduction under Section 80P was rightly rejected.
