The assessee neither filed returns nor responded to statutory notices, yet additions were deleted on appeal. ITAT held that absence of verification of source and compliance makes such deletion unsustainable.
The revision questioned deduction on interest income allowed under section 80P. The Tribunal held that where the AO adopts a legally plausible view after enquiry, section 263 cannot be invoked.
The Tribunal held that eligibility of deduction on interest from scheduled banks depends on whether funds are operational to the credit business. The matter was remanded to verify the society’s activities and source of funds.
The issue was whether interest earned from a co-operative bank qualifies for deduction under Section 80P(2)(d). The Tribunal held that such interest is deductible, as a co-operative bank is itself a co-operative society.
The Court held that reassessment was invalid where deduction under Section 80P(2)(d) was lawfully claimed by a co-operative society. It ruled that interest from co-operative banks remains deductible when the assessee is not a co-operative bank.
ITAT ruled that deductions under section 80P cannot be disallowed at the CPC stage for returns filed after the due date prior to Finance Act 2021. The matter was remanded for proper verification by the AO.
The tribunal held that non-filing of return within the due date disentitled the assessee from deduction under section 80P due to section 80AC. Consequently, lower profit claims based on accounts were rejected.
The Tribunal held that interest earned by a co-operative credit society from fixed deposits with co-operative banks remains deductible under Section 80P(2)(a)(i). Such interest is attributable to the business of providing credit facilities to members, even after the Totgars ruling.
ITAT Bangalore rules that Section 80P deductions cannot be claimed if the return is filed after the due date. The decision reinforces compliance with Section 80AC(ii) and aligns with Madras HC precedent.
The ruling clarifies that Section 153(3)(ii) operates as an exception to the normal limitation framework. When assessments are made to give effect to appellate directions involving special audits, no fixed time limit applies.
