Aten Capital Private Limited Vs ACIT (Delhi High Court) Since the impugned order under Section 148A(d) has been passed on 5th April, 2022 i.e. after receipt of the detailed reply of the petitioner dated 4th April, 2022, the Assessing Officer should have considered the same as it was available on record. By not considering the […]
The Petitioner has challenged the impugned order primarily on the ground that the Petitioner was issued with a notice under Section 148A of the Income Act, 1961 on 20.03.2022 and that the Petitioner has also replied to the same on 25.03.2022, which has also been acknowledged. However, the impugned order has wrongly recorded that the Petitioner has not responded.
Maya Rathi Vs ITO (Rajasthan High Court) We find that the validity of first proviso to Section 148 of Income Tax Act, 1961 has been assailed on the ground that the explanation ‘income chargeable to tax has escaped assessment’, has been restricted in its meaning under the explanation-1 to that provisions.

ITAT held that A transaction of purchase and a transaction of sale are two different transactions in two opposite directions. If the allegation is that bogus purchases were made and the reply given thereof is that no such purchases were made, but in fact it was a sale by the assessee, it was for the Income Tax officials to apply their own mind on the reply given by the petitioner.
Court is of the view that the impugned order under Section 148A(d) of the Act has been passed in great haste and in gross violation of principle of natural justice as the Petitioner was not given reasonable time to file a reply.
Pradeep Kumar Varshney Vs ITO (Delhi High Court) Learned counsel for the Petitioner states that in the present case notice under Section 148A is not warranted as it is a case of Section 153C of the Act to which proviso (c) of Section 148A applies. In response to a pointed query, Mr. Sunil Agarwal, learned […]

Shri Sai Co-Operative Thrift and Credit Society Ltd. Vs ITO (Delhi High Court) In the present case, though the petitioner responded to the show cause notice, yet it could not provide all the relevant details and documents, as the time period of three days to respond to the show cause notice was inadequate.
