ITAT Jaipur ruling on Amrapali Exports Vs DCIT case. Can deduction u/s 10AA be claimed on enhanced profits after disallowance u/s 69C? Read now.
whether AO is correct in holding that the assessee was not entitled exemption u/s.54 of the Act by rejecting the claim of the assessee to have deposited in capital gain deposit account?
M/s JDC Traders Pvt. Ltd. Vs DCIT (ITAT Delhi) A careful reading of Section 147 clearly shows that it empowers the learned AO to assess or re-assess the income in respect of any issue which had escaped the assessment irrespective of the fact that whether such aspect was adverted to in respect of the reasons […]
Not passing a speaking order rejecting the objections of assessee to reopening of assessment but passing an order under section 147 making the additions based on reasons recorded had caused serious prejudice to interest of assessee. Thus, reopening had not been done in accordance with the law by AO and, therefore, reassessment order was set aside.

Satish Kumar Vs ITO (ITAT Delhi) It is an admitted fact that assessee filed reply in response to the notice under section 148 of the I.T. Act and submitted before A.O. that original return filed before him may be treated as return filed in response to the notice under section 148 of the I.T. Act. […]
