ITAT Delhi held that cash seized during search operations can be adjusted against self-assessment tax. The order distinguishes between advance tax and self-assessment tax, directing deletion of demand raised by CPC.
CESTAT Delhi held that refund claim of excess CVD paid after completion of one year from date of payment of duty as well as the date of relevant judgement is barred by limitation. Accordingly, appeal of assessee dismissed.
ITAT Indore deleted a Rs.1.46 crore addition made under Section 69C via rectification, ruling that the AO wrongly invoked the section. The commission payments reported in the audit form were a pass-through on behalf of clients, not the assessee’s claimed business expenditure, meaning the deduction of TDS didn’t imply an unrecorded expense.
Chhattisgarh High Court held that order passed without affording opportunity of personal hearing is against the principle of natural justice. Further, the said order was also not served. Thus, order is set aside and matter restored back.
The ITAT Delhi quashed a rectification order under Section 154, holding that a debatable issue regarding provision for construction expenses is not a “mistake apparent from record.” The ruling reinforces that Section 154 cannot be used to make additions that require a long-drawn process of reasoning or legal interpretation.
The Tribunal found that additions made purely on estimated profit percentages cannot attract concealment penalty. Since no specific inaccuracy or suppression was proven, ITAT deleted the penalty in full. The ruling aligns with precedents from Delhi, Rajasthan, Punjab & Haryana, and Gujarat High Courts.
Tribunal held that where Form 67 is submitted before the completion of assessment, foreign tax credit must be allowed even if the filing was delayed. It observed that neither the Act nor Rule 128(9) imposes disallowance for delay.
ITAT Delhi held that as per the MAT provisions of section 115JB of the Income Tax Act the lower of book losses or unabsorbed depreciation can be set off against book profits. Accordingly, order of CIT(A) upheld and appeal of assessee dismissed.
Dismissing the AO’s view that interest should be restricted to months of operation, Tribunal allowed full claim, reaffirming that partner interest accrues on financial year-end.
The Court stayed recovery proceedings initiated under Section 226(3) against the assessee’s bank accounts, noting that a stay application was already scheduled for hearing. Since the taxpayer had exercised his appellate and rectification rights, the Court found the Department’s coercive action premature. It ordered maintenance of status quo until the next hearing date. The judgment emphasizes fairness and procedural propriety in tax recovery.
