The article explains how accurate Form 10BD reporting protects donor deduction claims, prevents penalties, and ensures consistency with audit disclosures.
ITAT Delhi remitted matters relating to sections 12AB and 80G after finding that the impugned orders did not clearly establish whether the assessee had filed replies or complied with notices. The cases were sent back for fresh adjudication in the interest of substantive justice.
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.
