Orissa HC addresses challenges to the initiation of tax assessment and the retrospective effect of the amendment to Section 132(1) of the Income Tax Act.
AO observed that there was substantial undisclosed income, as the assessee admitted to unaccounted business income amounting to Rs.3,50,04,000/- during the search proceedings but did not file a return for the assessment year 2014-15.
Delhi High Court held that as AO didn’t assume jurisdiction under section 153C of the Income Tax Act, recourse to section 147 of the Income Tax Act for reassessment proceedings justified. Accordingly, appeal by revenue allowed.
Held that the capital subsidy should be reduced for computation of book profit. Particularly in view of the excruciating fact that reduction of subsidy from written down value was accepted by the Assessing Officer and he did not tinker with the amount of depreciation claimed.
Based on this satisfaction, a separate satisfaction note stood recorded u/s 153C of the Act in the hands of the assessee on 3.10.2022 by AO of the assessee. Hence the date of search in the case of the assessee becomes 3.10.2022 relevant to Asst Year 2023-24.
It is settled position of law that there cannot be any estoppels against the statute. If an income, is not taxable within the four corners of law, then the same cannot be made taxable merely because the assessee has offered the same under misconception of facts and law.
Assessee had filed his income tax return on in which he declared a total income of Rs. 35,00,611, accepted under Section 143(1). A subsequent search and seizure operation on Pipavav Defence and Offshore Engineering Co. brought assessee’s finances under scrutiny, as he was allegedly linked to the company.
Aggrieved by the relief granted by CIT(A) to assessee, Revenue preferred Appeal before ITAT for the assessment years under consideration and against the deletion of additions made by AO. ITAT dismissed the appeal.
