ITAT Delhi held that a reassessment notice issued three years after the relevant AY is invalid if the alleged escaped income is below ₹50 lakh, reinforcing the statutory threshold protection.
The appeal was allowed as the notice under section 148 was sanctioned by an authority not competent under law. All proceedings following the invalid notice were held void-ab-initio. The ruling highlights the necessity of proper sanction for reopening assessments beyond three years.
Court held that an income tax assessment issued after the assessee’s death is null and void, emphasizing the legal heir’s right to contest the order.
ITAT held that the reassessment notice issued after the assessee’s death raised jurisdictional issues. Legal grounds like issuance to a deceased must be adjudicated before proceeding with assessments.
The Tribunal held that once sales are accepted and basic supporting documents exist, only the profit element in alleged bogus purchases can be taxed. It upheld a 6% GP addition and rejected the Revenue’s demand for 100% disallowance.
The order was remanded after ITAT found the CIT(A) overlooked core issues including validity of belated 148 return, applicability of 153C, and cross-examination rights.
ITAT Kolkata quashed a reassessment order, holding that NFAC had no jurisdiction before the formal notification of Section 151A. The ₹2.14 crore addition was deleted, highlighting that faceless assessments cannot be retroactively enforced.
The Court ruled that once a resolution plan is approved, prior tax liabilities are extinguished. Notices issued under Sections 148 and 142(1) for periods before approval were therefore invalid.
The Court held that tax proceedings cannot continue for periods covered by an approved resolution plan. It ruled that past claims stood extinguished, leading to the quashing of the Section 148 notice.
The Court ruled that reassessment notices issued by the JAO after 29 March 2022 were without jurisdiction. The proceedings and related orders were struck down.
