The Tribunal ruled that reopening proceedings cannot survive where the mandatory sanction under Section 151 is not obtained from the prescribed authority. The defect was held to be jurisdictional, rendering the notice invalid.
The Tribunal ruled that addition of the entire amount of bogus purchases as unexplained expenditure was unwarranted in the facts of the case. It reaffirmed that only the estimated profit arising from such purchases should be brought to tax.
The Chennai ITAT held that the Pr. CIT could not invoke Section 263 on matters already under consideration before the appellate authority. The ruling emphasises the statutory bar against parallel revision proceedings on the same issue.
The Tribunal upheld the denial of deduction under Section 80GGC after finding that the political donation formed part of an alleged accommodation entry arrangement. The ruling emphasised that deductions may be denied where investigative findings indicate a lack of genuineness and remain unrebutted by the taxpayer.
The ITAT Mumbai held that when the reason recorded for reopening an assessment does not ultimately result in any addition, the Assessing Officer cannot make an addition on a completely different issue.
The Mumbai ITAT held that an addition under Section 68 cannot be made solely on the basis of a retracted statement alleging accommodation loans when documentary evidence proves identity, creditworthiness, and genuineness.
The Mumbai ITAT held that reassessment proceedings under Section 147/148 were invalid where the case was based on search material requiring action under Section 153C. The ruling reinforces that search-related assessments for third parties must follow the special procedure under Section 153C, not regular reassessment provisions.
The Tribunal condoned the delayed appeal filing after finding sufficient cause and allowed the matter to proceed. It also clarified that reassessment jurisdiction remains valid despite arguments regarding faceless assessment provisions.
The ITAT ruled that deduction of TDS does not excuse failure to file an income tax return. The decision emphasizes that income discovered through departmental records can attract penalty for under-reporting under Section 270A.
The Delhi ITAT held that additions made on transactions unrelated to the reasons recorded for reopening were beyond the Assessing Officer’s jurisdiction. The reassessment addition was therefore deleted.
