ITAT Ahmedabad ruled that credit entries in the assessee’s account were correctly assessed, even though initial cash deposits belonged to a company, ensuring proper attribution of income.
Ahmedabad ITAT deleted Rs. 9.64 lakh addition under Section 69A, holding that only net interest income is taxable after deducting interest expenditure on borrowed funds.
The reassessment was framed by NFAC before faceless powers under section 151A were notified. The ITAT held the entire reassessment without jurisdiction and quashed both reopening and addition.
The reassessments were initiated after four years based on section 68 but concluded under section 115BBC. The ITAT held that absence of valid jurisdiction and mismatch of sections rendered the reassessments void.
The Tribunal ruled that appellate authorities must decide appeals on merits, even if the taxpayer does not appear, reinforcing the mandate of Section 250(6).
The ITAT held that a reassessment notice dispatched after the new law took effect must follow Section 148A, and failure to do so invalidates the entire proceedings.
ITAT held that section 69 cannot be invoked where purchases are duly recorded in books and paid through banking channels, making the reassessment unsustainable.
The Tribunal held that ritualistic approval under section 153D, without application of mind, vitiates search assessments. Mandatory supervisory approval must reflect genuine examination of draft orders.
The ITAT held that appeals must be filed before the correct jurisdictional bench. An appeal filed before the wrong Tribunal is liable to dismissal at the threshold.
The Tribunal upheld revision after finding that the Assessing Officer accepted explanations without proper verification. The ruling stresses that insufficient enquiry can justify action under Section 263.
