ITAT Ahmedabad held that depreciation on goodwill arising from amalgamation was allowable for assessment years prior to AY 2021-22. The Tribunal ruled that amendments excluding goodwill from depreciable assets operate prospectively.
The Tribunal ruled that a genuine share transaction resulting in a short-term loss cannot automatically be treated as a make-believe or accommodation entry transaction. The assessee’s regular trading history supported the genuineness of the transactions.
The new law treats gains from depreciable assets as short-term capital gains for all purposes, not merely for computation. This effectively removes exemption benefits previously allowed through judicial interpretation under the old regime.
The Tribunal held that long-term capital gains cannot be disallowed solely on investigation reports and assumptions. It found that documentary evidence and investment history supported genuineness, leading to deletion of additions under Section 68.
Rebate under Section 87A includes STCG for eligibility but cannot be applied to such income. This creates a limitation in tax benefit for taxpayers earning capital gains.

The Tribunal held reopening valid as tangible material showed undisclosed capital gains. It ruled that execution of a registered sale deed triggers tax liability even if consideration is disputed.
