The Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG) has come down heavily on the Tax Department for fostering “a perception that it has a tendency to opt for appeals even when it is on a weak wicket” and this “appealititis is more detrimental when applied on small taxpayers constituting a large chunk of appellants.”
In spite of having various appellate tribunals and commissions within its establishment, the Income Tax Department has registered a more than two-fold rise in appeals in Supreme Court in cases involving crores of rupees of the exchequer.
The Central Bureau of Investigation has registered a case against the then Commissioner Income Tax (Appeal), XIV, Mumbai U/s 13(2) r/w 13(1)(d) of PC Act. on the allegation that he had obtained pecuniary advantage to the tune of Rs. 50 lakhs (approx) during the period 2001 to 2008 in the form of huge donations for his Mumbai based charitable trust from Income Tax assesses/ parties coming under his jurisdiction and as a quid pro quo passed orders in the favour of the assesses.
As the search warrant was issued in the joint names of the assessee and her spouse, it means that the officer had reason to believe that the undisclosed assets and income were held jointly. If so, it is not open for the AO to assess the assessee individually on the basis of the assets and documents seized during the course of search in pursuance to the said warrant but the assessment ought to have been only in the capacity of AOP or BOI.

On appeal by the department, the Tribunal ruled against the assessee and held that it was not eligible for deduction. The assessee filed a MA u/s 254 (2) pointing out that it had cited a judgement of the Kolkota Bench of the Tribunal (which had been considered by the CIT (A)) and a judgement of the Kolkota High Court which had not been considered by the Tribunal when deciding the appeal and the same was a ‘mistake apparent from the record’.
S. 260A permits the filing of an appeal to the High Court within 120 days. In CIT vs. Velingkar Brothers 289 ITR 382 (Bom) (FB), The Full Bench held that the Court had power to condone delay u/s 260A. However, in Hongo India 236 E.L.T. 417 and Chaudharana Steels 238 E.L.T. 705, the Supreme Court held in the context of sections 35H & 35G
