Bombay High Court held that initiation of reopening of assessment after expiry of four years from the end of relevant assessment year without failure on part of the petitioner to disclose any material fact fully and truly is unsustainable in law.
ITAT Mumbai held that normal period of limitation i.e. 3 years will apply in case of reopening of assessment where escapement of income was below Rs. 50 Lakhs and extended period of 10 years will apply only in case of concealment of income of Rs. 50 Lakhs or more.
Re-opening of assessment by AO was unjustified if the original return had not been processed by following the decision in case of Super Spinning Mills Ltd. vs Addl. CIT 37 DTR (Chennai) (T.M) (Trib).
ITAT Delhi remands case to CIT(A) for fresh adjudication due to lack of physical notice before ex-parte decision on unexplained investment.
However, the completed/unabated assessments could be re-opened by the AO in exercise of powers under sections 147/148, subject to fulfilment of the conditions as envisaged/mentioned under sections 147/148 and those powers were saved.
Rajasthan High Court held that since reassessment order is distinct and different, the period of limitation for exercising powers u/s. 263 of the Income Tax Act would be the date of original assessment order. Thus, entire proceedings barred by limitation.
ITAT Nagpur held that once the computation of income is approved by the assessee before CIT(A) the same cannot be argued against the Tribunal. Accordingly, computation of income directed by CIT(A) upheld.
ITAT Delhi held that revenue has wrongly proceeded on mis-appreciation of facts of substantive nature as purchase of property wrongly alleged by AO as sale of property. Thus, matter remanded back to the file of AO.
ITAT Raipur held that law will help only those who are vigilant and will not assist the one who are careless. Accordingly, request of assessee to restore matter back not granted as assessee has chosen not to represent its matter for more than 08 years.
Assessee, an individual, had deposited cash in his bank account. During assessment, AO observed that assessee had entered into share transactions and earned income from commodities through Multi Commodity Exchange.
