  4. ITAT Mumbai · 19 Nov 2019
    So far as the source jurisdiction taxability under the treaty provisions is concerned, legal amendments so as to influence the taxability even under the treaty situation, by the source jurisdictions unilaterally, are impermissible. That will be the end result of a domestic law amendment of an undefined treaty term, in departure from the current position, and import such amended meaning of that term, under article 3(2), in the treaty situations as well.

    Reliance Jio Infocomm Ltd Vs Assistant Commissioner of Income-tax

    (2019) TaxCorp(LJ) 20472 (ITAT-MUMBAI)

  5. ITAT Delhi · 19 Nov 2019
    Thorough and investigative enquiries were conducted by the Assessing Officer, not only from the assessee, but also from all the concerned persons and hence revisionary powers u/s. 263 cannot be invoked. Proceedings u/s 263 of the Act have been initiated in this case apparently on the basis of false, frivolous and baseless allegations with malafide intention of the quarter concerned which were also examined and found not sustainable by the Vigilance Directorate of Income-tax Department.

    Smt. Shumana Sen Vs The DCIT

    (2019) TaxCorp(LJ) 20471 (ITAT-DELHI) · Section 263

    (2019) TaxCorp(LJ) 20470 (SC)

  7. Kerala High Court · 19 Nov 2019
    It would also be an aspect of fairness in tax administration that the assessee is not prejudiced on account of service of an order, through a mode that he did not opt for in the event of an ambiguity in construing the provisions in a taxing statute, it has to take a view that favours the assessee.

    FCI OEN Connectors Limited vs. DCIT, ITO

    (2019) TaxCorp(LJ) 20469 (HC-KERALA) · Section 144C(2)

  8. Supreme Court · 18 Nov 2019

    P.P. Mahatme, Power of Attorney Lorna Margaret Pinto Vs Asst. Commissioner of Income-tax

    (2019) TaxCorp(LJ) 20467 (HC-BOMBAY) · Section 149(3)

  10. ITAT Jaipur · 16 Nov 2019
    AO rejected the books of account of the assessee by invoking the provisions of section 145(3). Thus once the AO has invoked the provisions of section 145(3), the only course of action left with the AO to proceed with the assessment on best judgment basis and the income of the assessee ought to have been estimated on some reasonable and proper basis. It is also not in dispute that the past history i.e. the GP/NP declared by the assessee is the proper and reasonable basis and guidance for estimation of income of the assessee for the year under consideration.

    M/S. CHEMICALS INDIA VERSUS THE JOINT COMMISSIONER OF INCOME TAX, RANGE-1, KOTA.

    (2019) TaxCorp(LJ) 20456 (ITAT-JAIPUR) · https://taxcorp.in/FileOpenDT.aspx?ID=79148&Category=ITAT&CategoryType=Zip

  11. ITAT Mumbai · 16 Nov 2019
    The question of stay application before the Tribunal thus normally comes into play only when the demands in question are impugned in appeal before us. That apart, the stay under section 220(6) can only be granted by the Assessing Officer, and not by his supervisory authorities such as the Principal Commissioner of Income Tax. As a matter of fact, an order passed by the Principal Commissioner of Income Tax, declining grant of stay during the currency of appeal before the first appellate authority i.e. CIT(A), is only an administrative order.

    SALE MOHD PADAMSEE & CO VERSUS PRINCIPAL COMMISSIONER OF INCOME TAX- 25 MUMBAI

  12. ITAT Mumbai · 16 Nov 2019
    As decided in own case Order appealed against is an order passed under section 195(2) against ONGC requiring it to deduct tax at source on payments made to the assessee. Further, there is no final determination of liability under the Act as far as the assessee is concerned which can only be determined when assessment is framed against the assessee.

    (2019) TaxCorp(LJ) 20454 (ITAT-MUMBAI) · https://taxcorp.in/FileOpenDT.aspx?ID=79152&Category=ITAT&CategoryType=Zip

  13. ITAT Mumbai · 16 Nov 2019
    An examination of the working of total estimated loss on the project “S.S. House” as worked out by the assessee clearly indicates that it suffers from basic deficiencies viz. (i) total cost incurred till 31/03/2014 ₹ 91,07,85,390/ or ₹ 978,886,048/- is not a reliable one, as the assessee is sticking to two figures, without supporting computation, and (ii) total estimated loss of ₹ 3,95,51,736/- or ₹ 108,431,736/- is not a reliable one, as the assessee is sticking to two figures, without supporting computation, (iii) there is no prudent estimate of additional cost for completion of the project.

    (2019) TaxCorp(LJ) 20453 (ITAT-MUMBAI) · https://taxcorp.in/FileOpenDT.aspx?ID=79153&Category=ITAT&CategoryType=Zip

  14. ITAT Delhi · 15 Nov 2019
    If all these things are put in perspective, then the contention of the ld. Special Counsel and ld. CIT (E) is to be believed that it is only when the Investigation Wing and Income-tax Department started making certain investigation and enquiries and also looking to the fact that no genuine activity was carried out for the period of five years, the assessee may have been prompted to surrender its registration u/s. 12AA.

    Romita Mathur Vs DCIT

    (2019) TaxCorp(LJ) 20451 (ITAT-DELHI) · Section 54

  16. ITAT Mumbai · 15 Nov 2019
    The fact that the assessee had also not placed on record any material which would reveal that he had at any occasion reciprocated a similar gift to his sister, also supports the fact that no genuine gift was received by the assessee from his sister.

    Kailash A. KotharI Vs ITO

    (2019) TaxCorp(LJ) 20450 (ITAT-MUMBAI) · Section 271(1)(c)

  17. ITAT Delhi · 15 Nov 2019
    CIT(A) rejected assessee's plea for rectification upon observing that the issue of adjustment to cost had already been decided and holding that rectification application can only be entertained with respect to the visible flaws in the order and not for the adjudication of grounds. In such an event the Revenue need not have any grievance against such a finding of the CIT(A). Dismisses the ground of the Revenue.

    (2019) TaxCorp(LJ) 20449 (ITAT-DELHI)

  18. ITAT Indore · 15 Nov 2019
    The assessee instead of pointing out mistake apparent from record, seems to be calling for reviewing of the order of the tribunal, which was not permitted as per Sec.254(2), thus dismisses the application for rectification.

    Premier Industries (I) Ltd Vs JCIT

    (2019) TaxCorp(LJ) 20448 (ITAT-INDORE)
