ITAT required the Assessing Officer to verify whether the correct tax credit was allowed. The assessee must present supporting evidence, ensuring accurate refunds under the Income Tax Act.
The Tribunal found the Final Assessment Order invalid as it was issued before the 30-day objection period under Section 144C expired. This violated the assessee’s procedural rights. All transfer pricing adjustments and tax demands linked to the order were deleted, partly allowing the appeal.
The Tribunal condoned a 27-day delay after accepting the assessee’s affidavit explaining non-intentional default and lack of familiarity with e-proceedings. It held that the CIT(A) wrongly dismissed the first appeal ex parte without addressing merits. The matter was remanded for fresh adjudication with full opportunity of hearing.
ITAT observed that NFAC neither followed the mandatory remand requirement under Section 251(1) nor complied with the speaking-order mandate of Section 250(6). Accordingly, the matter was remitted to be adjudicated strictly as per the amended law.
The Tribunal emphasized that statutory obligations under Section 250(6) cannot be bypassed even when the assessee defaults in appearance. Lack of reasoning and non-discussion of issues rendered the NFAC’s ex-parte order unsustainable.
