The Delhi High Court held that an assessment order cannot be remanded to the AO without adjudicating the validity of the Section 144 order. The matter was remanded to the CIT(A) to decide jurisdiction first.
The key question was whether STR-based information can trigger harsh taxation under Section 115BBE. The ITAT held that without concrete evidence of non-genuine transactions, such additions cannot stand. Both reopening and tax addition were annulled.
The Tribunal held that a Section 148 notice issued after three years was invalid because the escaped income was below ₹50 lakh, making the reopening beyond limitation.
The Tribunal sent the matter back to the Assessing Officer after finding that important objections on land classification and cost of acquisition were not verified. A fresh decision must be made after proper examination.
The ITAT held that reassessment beyond four years fails when the reasons do not show the assessee’s failure to disclose material facts.
The ITAT held that jewellery tag prices in internal software cannot be equated with realised sales, deleting GP additions made without evidence of suppression.
ITAT held that entire cash deposits of a business correspondent cannot be treated as unexplained income without verification. The AO must examine whether deposits were bank collections or the assessee’s own money.
The court ruled that settlement applications filed between 01.02.2021 and 31.03.2021 remain valid since the Finance Act, 2021 took effect only on 01.04.2021, preserving vested rights during the interregnum
Delhi ITAT quashed ex-parte assessments under Sections 144/147/143(3) as the authorised signatory’s serious illness prevented contesting, ensuring a fair opportunity to present evidence.
The Tribunal admitted an additional legal ground under Rule 11, allowing examination of the Section 148 notice on admitted facts. Since the notice was issued after the limitation period, the reassessment order and ₹3.34 crore additions were set aside.
