Sh. Mukesh Mittal Vs ITO (ITAT Delhi) The assessment order clearly shows that the AO has merely reproduced the modus operandi of the entry providers who booked bogus long term capital gains through penny stock companies. The show cause notice dated 2.12.2016 issued by the AO during the assessment proceedings and the findings of the […]
Tapas Kumar Mallick Vs ACIT (ITAT Delhi) A perusal of the assessment order clearly shows that the Assessing Officer was carried away by the report of the Investigation Wing and the exparte Ad-Interim order of the SEBI. It can be seen that the entire assessment order has been framed by the Assessing Officer without conducting […]
Sahakar Global Ltd. Vs DCIT (ITAT Mumbai) Issue- Addition of Rs. 3,50,00,000/- as unexplained cash credit u/s. 68 in respect of amount received during the year as share capital and premium from M/s. Vanguard Jewels Ltd, Ansh Merchandise Pvt Ltd., Alka Diamond Industries Ltd & Talent Infoway Pvt Ltd. Held: Additions have primarily been made […]
In my considered opinion, once the total turnover of the assessee is much more than the total cash deposit in the bank account (in this case sales is 227% of the cash deposit), no addition is called for on account of unexplained cash deposit in the bank account. The explanation of the assessee appears to be reasonable. Under these circumstances, I hold that the ld.CIT(A) is not justified in sustaining the addition of Rs. 3,67,000/-. I, therefore, set aside the order of the CIT(A) and direct the AO to delete the addition.
It was held that even if the shareholders are bogus, addition cannot be made in the hands of the assessee and addition can be made only in the hands of such bogus shareholders if their identity is known to the Department.
ITO Vs Direct Mercantile Company Pvt. Ltd. (ITAT New Delhi) Issue- Ld. Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeal) erred in law and on facts of the case in deleting the addition of Rs. 3,14,16,000/- made by the A.O on account of unexplained share capital & share premium and Rs. 2,10,00,000/- on account of unexplained investment Submission […]
ITO Vs Angel Cement Pvt. Ltd (ITAT Delhi) Now coming to the issue of fresh addition made by the ld. CIT (A) by making enhancement on account of alleged commission income in three cases. Though as discussed above, the ld. CIT (A) has deleted the addition made u/s.68 on the ground that no unaccounted funds […]
ACIT Vs Overtop Marketing Pvt. Ltd. (ITAT Kolkata) when the assessee as well as the lenders had discharged the onus upon them to prove the identity, creditworthiness and genuineness of the loan transaction, the AO could have disbelieved the transaction only on the basis of reliable material to disprove the same. In this case the […]
Sunrise Jewellers Vs ITO (ITAT Cuttack) Addition of Rs. 1,19,848/- on ad hoc basis without specifying/pinpointing which voucher is not verifiable After hearing both the sides and perusing the entire material available on record along with the paper book filed by the assessee as well as the orders of the authorities below and the written […]
