ASSISTANT COMMISSIONER OF INCOME TAX vs. MAGICAL ENTERPRISES L.L.P
Revenue Appeals CIT(A)’s Decision on Exemptions and LTCG Taxation for AY 2016-17
The appeal in question is filed by the Revenue to challenge the First Appellate order passed by the Ld. CIT(A) on 16.03.2022, which dealt with the disallowance of exemptions u/s 10(34A) and taxation of Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG) u/s 112 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 for the AY 2016-17. The Revenue disputes the Ld. CIT(A)’s decision to allow the exemption and the special tax rate on LTCG, arguing that there were alleged manipulative transactions with unlisted companies. However, the Ld. CIT(A) found the assessee's claims to be valid, dismissing the Revenue's appeal. Additionally, a Cross Objection has been filed by the assessee supporting the Ld. CIT(A)’s decision.

ASHI ENTERPRISES vs. INCOME TAX OFFICER
Re-evaluation of Assessee's Appeal: Misconception of Direct Taxes Vivad Se Vishwas Scheme
The appeal originates from an order dated 24.01.2024 by the National Faceless Appeal Centre (CIT(A)), which dismissed the assessee's appeal based on the assumption that the assessee had opted for the Direct Taxes Vivad Se Vishwas scheme and filed the necessary forms. The assessee contested this dismissal, asserting they never applied for the scheme nor submitted any related forms. The assessment involved an addition of Rs.6,15,946.71, including professional fees, advertisement expenses, convenience expenses, and salary expenses. The ld. CIT(A)'s dismissal was deemed erroneous due to a lack of evidence. The case was remanded to CIT(A) for a fresh adjudication on merits, with the appeal allowed for statistical purposes.

THE CHAMBER OF TAX CONSULTANTS vs. DIRECTOR GENERAL OF INCOME TAX (SYSTEMS) & ORS.
"The Chamber of Tax Consultants Challenges Software Changes Preventing Section 87A Rebates for AY 2024-25: Court Extends ITR Filing Deadline to Ensure Fairness"
1. Petition Overview: The Chamber of Tax Consultants filed a PIL challenging modifications in the tax department's software that prevent taxpayers from claiming rebates u/s 87A of the Income Tax Act, 1961, after July 5, 2024, for the AY 2024-25. The petition argues this modification is arbitrary, unjustified, and contrary to legislative intent, causing financial hardship to eligible taxpayers.
2. Key Provisions Discussed:
• Section 87A: Provides a rebate to taxpayers with incomes below specified thresholds, intended to offer relief to low-income groups. For AY 2024-25, a 100% rebate on tax for incomes up to Rs.7 lakh is allowed under the new tax regime.
• Section 115BAC: Introduced an alternate tax regime with lower tax rates but fewer exemptions, which became the default regime unless taxpayers opt otherwise.
3. Petitioner's Arguments:
• Disabling the rebate in the tax-filing utility violates fairness and transparency principles.
• Taxpayers are denied their statutory rights due to software modifications.
• Revised returns under Section 139(5) should be permitted for those unable to claim the rebate.
• The unilateral actions of the tax department undermine public confidence and legislative intent.
4. Respondent's Position:
• The changes were made to address anomalies in rebate claims and align the utility with statutory rules.
• The rebate depends on statutory eligibility, not necessarily on claims made in the return.
5. The Court’s Interim Observations and Directions:
• The rebate under Section 87A is a substantive right linked to income and tax liability. Procedural barriers like software modifications cannot override it.
• Procedural hurdles caused by the tax department warrant judicial intervention to uphold legislative intent.
• Interim Relief: The court directed the tax authorities to extend the deadline for filing income tax returns from December 31, 2024, to January 15, 2025, ensuring eligible taxpayers can claim their rebates.
6. Next Hearing: The petition is listed for final disposal on January 9, 2025.
The court emphasized the importance of fairness, equity, and transparency in tax administration and the need for procedural measures to support, not hinder, compliance with statutory rights.

The appeal filed by the assessee contends that the assessment order dated 29.03.2022 u/s 147 read with section 144B was neither erroneous nor prejudicial to the interests of the revenue, and hence, the invocation of section 263 was unjustified. The primary issues raised include lack of jurisdiction, violation of natural justice, and invalidity of assessment due to procedural lapses. Ultimately, the appeal was allowed, and the 263 order was quashed, reaffirming the reassessment as valid.

"Assessment Dispute: Regional Rural Bank Challenges Addition of Rs. 87,73,904/- in 2020-21"
This appeal pertains to the AY 2020-21, where the assessee, a Regional Rural Bank, contested the addition of Rs. 87,73,904/- made by the AO. The addition was based on discrepancies in the TDS schedule and the income reported in the income tax return due to a software error. The assessee argued that the addition was erroneous and violated principles of natural justice as they were not provided with adequate opportunities to present their case. The CIT(A)/NFAC initially passed an ex-parte order due to a miscommunication regarding the hearing date. Upon review, the Tribunal decided to set aside the ex-parte order and remand the case for a fresh hearing, ensuring that the assessee is provided with a reasonable opportunity to present their case.

The Tribunal found merit in the assessee's explanation and restored the matter to the CIT(E) for reconsideration. The CIT(E) is directed to issue a fresh notice to the assessee on a valid email ID and allow them an opportunity to comply. The appeal is allowed for statistical purposes.

The Court Quashes Reassessment Proceedings Against Insolvent Company
The petitioner, a company incorporated under the Companies Act, 1956, challenged the reassessment proceedings initiated by the respondent authorities u/s 148A and 148 of the ITA, 1961. The petitioner emphasized the moratorium imposed by the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (IBC) and an approved resolution plan by the (NCLT), which bars such proceedings for the period prior to the effective date stipulated in the resolution plan. Despite detailed submissions, the respondent authorities continued reassessment proceedings, citing allegations of suspicious transactions with shell entities. The petitioner argued that these actions were illegal, arbitrary, and violated the statutory requirements under both the ITA and the IBC. The court found the reassessment proceedings to be without jurisdiction and quashed the notices and orders issued u/s 148A and 148, with all consequential proceedings being invalidated.

The main grounds revolve around procedural violations u/s 148 to 153, incorrect addition of unexplained cash deposits, and misuse of the assessee's bank account by the employer for trading transactions. The Assessee contended that the cash deposits and credit entries were not made with his knowledge and sought relief based on past assessments where similar issues did not result in additions. The Ld. CIT(A) dismissed the appeal mainly due to the absence of the FIR, but the Tribunal allowed the appeal, considering consistency in past assessments where no additions were made.

An order dated 16.07.2024 by the CIT(A), NFAC, Delhi, for the AY 2017-18. The assessee, a proprietor of a Reliance Petroleum franchise, challenged the rejection of a rectification application where it was claimed that prior submissions were not considered.

The appeal was filed by the Assessee against the order of the Ld. CIT(A) regarding the AY 2014-15. The Assessee challenged the validity of proceedings u/s 148, claiming the AO failed to follow proper procedures and lacked independent inquiries regarding unexplained cash deposits. The Assessee argued that the cash deposits in their bank account were made by their employer without their knowledge and were linked to trading activities. Despite providing supporting documents, the AO added Rs. 26,35,500 as unexplained income. The Ld. CIT(A) dismissed the appeal, citing insufficient evidence, particularly the absence of an FIR copy against the employer. However, the appeal was ultimately allowed, as the Tribunal noted similar prior assessments found no wrongdoing, suggesting consistent treatment in the current case. Thus, the additions made by the AO were deemed unsustainable.

M/S. VACMET INDIA LTD vs. DEPUTY COMMISSIONER OF INCOME TAX
"ITA No.335/Del/2019: Reassessment Quashed Due to Lack of Substantial Evidence and Inadequate Approval Under Section 151"
The AY 2013-14 and involves the reassessment order passed by the (AO) u/s 144/147 of the ITA, 1961. The primary issue revolves around the AO's assumption of jurisdiction u/s 147, which the assessee contested.
The assessee, a leading manufacturer of high barrier polymer films, provided comprehensive documentation supporting genuine transactions with M/s Perfect Polychem Private Limited. However, the AO reopened the assessment based on the statement of Mr. Vijay Goyal from M/s Perfect Polychem Private Limited, alleging bogus sales and accommodation entries.
The tribunal reviewed the facts and found that the AO relied on insufficient and conjectural evidence to reopen the assessment. It was concluded that the AO had no tangible material to support the allegations of bogus sales, and the reassessment proceedings were held to be legally flawed, including the inadequate approval u/s 151 of the Act. Consequently, the reassessment was quashed, and the appeal of the assessee was allowed, while the appeal of the revenue was dismissed.
