The Tribunal held that the ₹2.5 Cr flat investment was fully explained through agreement details and a DHFL housing loan, leaving no basis for an addition. Penalty u/s 271(1)(c) was remanded for fresh examination since the foundation for concealment no longer survived.
The Tribunal found no evidence of concealment since the assessee had transparently disclosed impairment, CENVAT credit treatment, and revenue recognition. It ruled that Section 271(1)(c) cannot be invoked merely because the AO made additions.
The Tribunal held that a 143(1)(a) adjustment denying ₹5.05 crore TDS credit was invalid because no mandatory show-cause intimation was issued. It ruled that a 139(9) defect notice cannot substitute the statutory opportunity required under 143(1), resulting in deletion of the entire ₹5.73 crore demand.
Tribunal deleted 10% ad-hoc disallowances on travelling and telephone expenses as the assessee produced complete vouchers and audited books. Authorities cannot impose blanket disallowances without specific inquiry.
ITAT holds that the temples bona fide belief in statutory exemption justified a 607-day delay. Assessments and penalties are remanded for fresh review considering exemption applicability.
ITAT Jaipur held that denial to allow the business loss stating the requirement of books of accounts to be audited is not justifiable since turnover during relevant period didn’t exceed the prescribed limit for getting books of accounts audited.

Madras High Court held that a trust’s legitimate tax exemption cannot be denied merely for delay in filing Form 10B, directing the Assessing Officer to allow benefits under Section 12A.
ITAT Ahmedabad deleted an addition made due to a minor difference between a firm’s VAT returns and its books of account. Tribunal ruled that variation was a legitimate bookkeeping consequence of statutory ITC reversal under Gujarat VAT Rules and not evidence of inflated purchases.
ITAT sustained PCIT’s revisional order under Section 263, ruling that AO’s mechanical acceptance of a low profit margin return without proper inquiry was both erroneous and prejudicial to Revenue’s interest. AO failed to examine applicability of mandatory audit under Section 44AB and correctness of declared profit ratio in liquor trade.
