The appeal was dismissed as time-barred due to a 43-day delay in filing. ITAT held that medical records substantiated the assessee’s health issues and restored the appeal for decision on merits.
The ITAT held that income disclosed during a survey could not be reclassified from business income to Section 69A income through rectification proceedings. A debatable issue cannot be treated as a mistake apparent from the record.
The Tribunal held that AY 2010-11 was outside the permissible ten-year assessment block computable under Section 153A. Applying the Delhi High Court’s interpretation in Ojjus Medicare, it found the notice itself invalid. As a result, the assessment proceedings were quashed and the appeals were allowed.
The Tribunal held that disallowance of 20% of total purchases was unsustainable where the Assessing Officer had accepted sales, stock records, and quantitative details. Mere non-service of notices under Section 133(6) could not justify treating all purchases as bogus.
The assessee contended that cash deposits in the bank account represented sales proceeds from a medicine business. The ITAT remanded the matter to the Assessing Officer to verify turnover details and determine taxable income on a reasonable basis.
Assessments arising from searches conducted after 01.04.2021 must strictly comply with the reassessment framework under sections 147 and 148. Failure to adhere to statutory jurisdictional requirements, including mandatory approvals and satisfaction for use of third-party material, rendered the entire assessment void.
The case involved additions for alleged on-money in Godhavi land transactions based on a handwritten loose sheet. The Tribunal restored the matter for fresh consideration, highlighting issues relating to evidence and assessment findings.
CBDT has instructed tax officers to uniformly apply Sections 68 to 69D and Section 115BBE after a C&AG audit found inconsistencies in assessments and incorrect tax computations leading to revenue loss.
The ITAT held that cash deposited by a money transfer agent during demonetisation could not be treated as unexplained income when the funds belonged to principal payment service providers. The Tribunal observed that the assessee merely acted as a collection agent and transferred the amounts to the principals.
ITAT held that loose sheets showing cash and cheque transactions could not justify additions under Section 153A where related cheque transactions were accepted as genuine and linked to group business dealings.
