The Delhi ITAT held that large cash deposits and investigation wing information alone do not create valid reason to believe for reopening assessment under Section 147. The Tribunal ruled that reassessment based on suspicion and borrowed satisfaction is invalid in law.
ITAT Raipur held that reassessment proceedings were invalid where documents and information forming the basis of reopening under Section 148 were withheld from the assessee.
The ITAT Visakhapatnam reduced a penalty under Section 271(1)(b) from Rs.30,000 to Rs.10,000 after treating non-compliance with three notices under Section 142(1) as a single default. The Tribunal granted partial relief while holding that the assessee failed to establish reasonable cause for non-compliance.
The Tribunal held that mere disallowance of deduction claimed under Section 80GGC does not automatically amount to misreporting of income. It deleted the penalty as there was no evidence of false particulars or fabricated documents.
The Tribunal ruled in favour of the assessee after noting that audited financials, PAN, bank statements, ITRs, confirmations, and MCA records of lenders were furnished. The ruling reinforces that documentary evidence can successfully rebut allegations of bogus loans.
The Tribunal held that reassessment proceedings were invalid where the Assessing Officer ignored the assessees detailed response and documentary evidence. ITAT ruled that such action violated principles of natural justice and reflected non-application of mind.
The Tribunal held that merely declaring presumptive income under Section 44AD does not exempt taxpayers from explaining massive bank credits. In absence of purchase records, bills, or confirmations, Section 69A addition was sustained.
The Tribunal held that once the income disclosed in the return filed under Section 148 was accepted without any addition, there could be no allegation of under-reporting or misreporting. The entire penalty of ₹4.91 lakh was deleted.
The Tribunal held that amount received on surrender of a pension policy could not be taxed as Income from Other Sources without proper examination of Section 80CCC(2). The entire addition of ₹10.40 lakh was deleted.
ITAT Ahmedabad held that no unexplained investment addition could survive where the booked property deal was cancelled and funds were refunded. The ruling emphasized verification of actual payment flow and subsequent cancellation events.
