The Gujarat High Court confirmed the Tribunal’s decision to disallow 25% of bogus purchases shown by Vijay Proteins Ltd., but quashed the penalty levied under Section 271(1)(c) of the Income-tax Act.
The Tribunal set aside the PCIT’s revision of a scrutiny assessment, ruling the action invalid because the Assessing Officer’s view on critical items like creditors and PF/ESI payments was already plausible and reasoned. Introducing new issues not covered in the show-cause notice constituted an exercise of jurisdiction beyond the permissible scope of Section 263.
HC held that large cash payments exceeding Rs.20,000 may be exempt if properly substantiated under Rule 6DD and business needs; Tribunal’s earlier disallowance set aside.
The ITAT ruled that seized parallel Tally data, reflecting higher sales and income, constitutes reliable incriminating material, validating assessments made under Section 153A.

The Mumbai ITAT restricted the disallowance for purchases from hawala parties to 25% of the bogus purchase amount, affirming the material was genuinely received and sold, despite fictitious invoices. The ruling relies on the Gujarat High Court’s precedent in Vijay Proteins.
