The Court held that an assessment order passed in the name of an amalgamating, non-existent entity is void. It ruled that system glitches cannot cure a fundamental jurisdictional defect.
ITAT held that exemption under Section 11 cannot be denied via rectification under Section 154 for alleged delay in filing Form 10B. The issue involved disputed facts and prior acceptance, making Section 154 invocation invalid.
ITAT held that interest under Section 220(2) must be recomputed based on reduced assessed income after rectification under Section 154. However, it clarified that interest will still run from the original demand date.
The Tribunal held that corpus donations received with specific directions are capital in nature and cannot be included in annual receipts. Since actual receipts were below ₹1 crore, exemption was allowed.
The Tribunal relied on Supreme Court rulings to hold that co-operative banks qualify as co-operative societies for deduction purposes. It allowed deduction on interest income under Section 80P(2)(d).
ITAT Hyderabad held that the Supreme Court’s COVID-19 limitation extensions apply only to judicial and quasi-judicial proceedings and not to statutory deadlines like filing TDS statements. Consequently, the levy of late filing fee under section 234E was upheld for delayed TDS returns.
The court held that transfer pricing adjustments cannot automatically be treated as misreporting of income. Without evidence of deliberate concealment, penalty under Section 270A cannot be imposed.
ITAT ruled that denial of TDS credit due to a PAN mismatch between the deceased and the legal heir is unjustified. Once the income is taxed in the hands of the legal heir, the corresponding TDS credit must also be granted.
The ITAT Chennai held that additions under Section 153A cannot be made for completed assessments when no incriminating material is found during search. Additions based only on special audit findings were therefore quashed.
The case involved CPC adjustment denying deduction for employees’ PF contribution deposited after statutory due dates. The tribunal ruled that before the Supreme Court’s later decision, the issue was debatable and could not be adjusted under Section 143(1).
