The Tribunal held that where accounts are mandatorily auditable under another law, the extended deadline applies and deduction cannot be denied as time-barred.
The Tribunal held that denial of India–USA DTAA rates during processing under Section 143(1) was unjustified. It observed that Form 10F facilitates verification and does not create the right, making delayed compliance curable.
The Tribunal clarified that CPC could not make prima facie adjustments denying Section 80P deduction before the Finance Act, 2021 amendment. The disallowance made in 2019 was held invalid and deleted.
The Tribunal upheld 200% penalty under Section 270A for misreporting income through ineligible deductions. Admitted incorrect claims were treated as conscious misrepresentation, not a bonafide error.
Kerala High Court held that importer mis-declared semi-dried dates imported by them as fresh dates hence IGST exemption wrongly claimed. Further, importer approached to amend bill of entry only after initiation of proceedings under section 28, accordingly, amendment is not permissible.
The Tribunal ruled that reopening based merely on audit objection without independent application of mind is unsustainable. An audit note cannot replace the Assessing Officers reasoned belief.
The Tribunal emphasized that substantive justice prevails over technical PAN mismatch. Since income of the deceased was offered and accepted, TDS credit had to be allowed to the legal heir.
The Tribunal ruled that since the assessment was legally correct when passed, invoking Section 154 after a later Supreme Court decision was impermissible. The addition was consequently deleted.
ITAT held that once the concessional tax option under Section 115BAB is exercised in the first eligible year, it automatically applies to subsequent years. Technical defects in later returns cannot defeat the claim.
ITAT ruled that exemption under Section 10(23C)(iiiad) cannot be denied merely because of an incorrect disclosure in the return. Documentary proof of running a school was decisive.
