SC issued notice and stayed the Rajasthan HC judgment upholding GST liability on a DBFOT/BOT toll concessionaire. Final merits remain undecided.
The Supreme Court held excise duty paid by buyers formed part of turnover, discussed colourable devices, and distinguished legitimate tax planning.
SC dismissed the SLP, leaving intact the HC ruling that Section 147 reopening was invalid where Section 153C procedure applied.
SC held that under Section 153C, the six-year assessment period for a third-party assessee begins from receipt of seized material by the jurisdictional AO, not the search date.
Supreme Court quashed criminal proceedings after a full OTS settlement, noting no surviving claim, parity with co-accused, and no continuing public interest.
SC issued notice after observing that reliance on AI-generated fake judgments affects adjudicatory integrity and amounts to misconduct.
SC held that penalty under Section 271E cannot survive after the original assessment is set aside and the fresh assessment records no satisfaction for initiating such penalty.
SC upheld Section 263 revision, holding an unreasoned assessment on subsidy was erroneous, and directed the AO to decide the issue independently.
Supreme Court held post-death ITRs require financial verification, fixed annual income on available records, enhanced compensation, and allowed the appeal.
SC applies the average of three previous ITRs to assess self-employed income and enhances motor accident compensation to Rs.87.09 lakh.
