The Telangana High Court held that an assessee cannot file an updated return under Section 139(8A) once assessment proceedings have commenced or are completed. The ruling clarifies that the third proviso to Section 139(8A) bars updated returns after issuance of scrutiny notices.
The Tribunal ruled that premium rooms, higher tariffs, and specialized medical facilities cannot by themselves establish a profit motive. Charitable status must be tested on statutory criteria rather than perceptions of affordability or luxury.
The Tribunal found that the assessee had duly complied with statutory requirements by obtaining approval after modifying its objects. The CIT(E)’s finding of non-compliance was therefore contrary to the record. Renewal of registration was directed in the absence of any adverse findings on charitable activities.
Mumbai ITAT noted that the rejection of registration under Section 12AB solely due to the absence of an express irrevocability clause in the trust deed no longer survived after subsequent registration was granted.
The Tribunal noted that donations to Swachh Bharat Kosh and Clean Ganga Fund made towards CSR obligations are specifically excluded under section 80G, while no similar embargo exists for other eligible institutions. Consequently, the assessee’s claim for deduction was allowed in full.
The Tribunal examined whether donations made as part of CSR obligations could qualify for deduction under Section 80G. It held that deduction cannot be denied merely because the payment was made towards CSR, subject to fulfillment of Section 80G conditions.
ITAT Bangalore ruled that rejection of an 80G registration application merely for quoting the wrong section code violated principles of natural justice. The authority was directed to consider the corrected application on merits.
ITAT Delhi held that CSR-related donations can qualify for deduction under Section 80G when made to institutions approved under that provision. The Tribunal directed verification of eligibility and allowed the claim for statistical purposes.
ITAT Delhi held that deduction under Section 80G cannot be denied merely because donations were made as part of CSR obligations. The Tribunal ruled that contributions to eligible institutions remain deductible when statutory conditions are satisfied.
The ITAT Bangalore held that a deduction under Section 80G cannot be denied solely because the payment formed part of CSR expenditure. The Tribunal observed that denying the claim after CSR disallowance under Section 37(1) could result in double disallowance and remanded the matter for verification.
