The Tribunal upheld deletion of unsecured loan additions after finding that the lenders identity, bank trail, and reserves were established. Low declared income alone was held insufficient to treat the credits as unexplained.
Despite non-compliance during assessment, the Tribunal upheld deletion of additions where facts showed only renewal of deposits. Ex-parte proceedings do not justify treating old FDs as unexplained investments.
The dispute concerned whether transfer through a release deed amounted to a taxable sale and justified loss claims. The Tribunal remanded the matter, directing verification of books to examine the genuineness of the claimed loss.
The Tribunal upheld the CIT(A)’s power to remand an ex-parte assessment for fresh adjudication. It ruled that such action was within jurisdiction, leading to dismissal of the Revenue’s appeal.
The issue was whether penalty could survive after the assessment order was set aside. The Tribunal held that once the basis of the addition is extinguished, penalty under Section 271(1)(c) cannot be sustained.
The Tribunal held that reassessment remains valid when the notice is issued while the company is still on the ROC records. Subsequent striking off does not nullify initiated proceedings.
The court held that a reassessment notice issued by the jurisdictional officer violated the faceless assessment scheme. As a result, the notice and the consequential assessment order were set aside, subject to liberty if higher courts take a different view.
The case examined whether a General Power of Attorney could be treated as a Joint Development Agreement for taxing capital gains. The Tribunal held that a GPA does not amount to a transfer, leading to deletion of the addition.
The Tribunal held that reassessment initiated with approval from an incorrect authority is invalid. Where the statute mandates sanction from a higher specified authority, deviation vitiates the proceedings.
Failure to comply with section 143(2) by the competent Assessing Officer invalidates the assessment. The decision underscores strict adherence to jurisdictional requirements under the Act.
