Karnataka High Court sets aside Sec 154 rectification, remands Sec 54 exemption claim for fresh review; validity of Sec 154 left open, assessee to appear before AO without notice.
The issue involved levy of late fees on TDS returns processed before statutory amendment. The Tribunal held that absence of enabling provision made such levy invalid and unsustainable.
The Tribunal condoned delay due to reasonable cause and addressed valuation mismatch. It remanded the issue for DVO-based reassessment. The ruling balances procedural leniency with substantive justice.
The issue was whether addition under Section 56(2)(x) based on stamp value was justified despite conflicting private valuation. The Tribunal directed the AO to obtain a DVO report and reconsider the addition as per law.
The Tribunal emphasized that procedural rules like Form 67 filing timelines are not meant to deny legitimate FTC. It directed the AO to grant credit after verifying evidence. The case highlights the primacy of DTAA provisions.
ITAT Mumbai held that CIT(A) cannot enhance income by introducing a new issue not examined by the Assessing Officer. The ruling clarifies that such action exceeds jurisdiction under Section 251 and must be addressed through other provisions.
The Tribunal held that leave encashment relating to government service remains fully exempt under Section 10(10AA). It ruled that later absorption into a PSU does not change the nature of the benefit.
The Tribunal held that TDS credit must be granted in the year in which the related income is assessed, even if it is not reflected in Form 26AS. The case clarifies that timing differences by the deductor cannot deny rightful credit.
The Tribunal emphasized that procedural lapses should not defeat substantive tax relief. It held that Form 67 filed during rectification proceedings is valid compliance, allowing reconsideration of FTC claim.
The dispute concerned enforcement of long-pending tax demands without timely action. The Court held that prolonged inaction by authorities and absence of proof of service violated fairness. It quashed the notice while allowing fresh remedies.
