The Tribunal held that land cost must be allocated based on saleable/built-up area under the JDA, not total land area. It directed adoption of a higher per-sq-ft land cost while recomputing capital gains.
The Tribunal held that an enforceable agreement to sell, supported by advance consideration, constitutes transfer under Section 2(47), entitling the assessee to Section 54 relief.
The Tribunal confirmed that only ₹10 lakh received by the assessee could be taxed. Addition based on total sale value was held unsustainable.
The issue was whether a penalty can survive when the show cause notice fails to specify the exact charge. ITAT held that a vague notice violates law, making the entire penalty unsustainable.
The ITAT restored an ex-parte assessment where LTCG was added mechanically without hearing the taxpayer. The ruling reinforces that denial of natural justice vitiates capital gains assessments.
Judicial rulings clarify that Section 54 focuses on timely investment of capital gains, not rigid legal ownership milestones. The exemption depends on when and how the investment is made.
The High Court ruled that tax authorities cannot ignore a binding ITAT Special Bench decision under Section 264 merely because the department has appealed it. Judicial discipline requires adherence unless the ruling is stayed or overturned.
Capital gains exemptions on property sales often lead to litigation due to Section 54 timelines and unclear date of transfer in transactions.
The issue was whether receipt of shares on amalgamation attracts tax when shares are held as stock-in-trade. The Court held such substitution can trigger business income under Section 28 if the shares are realisable, reinforcing the real income principle.
Allahabad High Court held that toll plaza receipts not mandatory for justifying actual physical movement of goods since e-way bill and tax invoice duly produced. Accordingly, order not justified in the eyes of law.
