    KPMG Vs Commissioner of Income Tax

    (2019) TaxCorp(LJ) 20238 (HC-BOMBAY)

  7. Bombay High Court · 09 Oct 2019
    Stay of demand u/s 220(6)/254(2A): The Dept is not right in relying upon the decision of the Supreme Court in Asian Resurfing of Road Agency vs. CBI (AIR 2018 SC 2039) to contend that any stay against recovery granted would automatically lapse after six months. This is neither the purport of the judgment of the SC, nor the observations made in the said judgment in the context of civil and criminal litigation can be imported in present set of quasi judicial proceedings. The power of the AO to review the situation every six months, would not authorize him to lift the stay previously granted after full consideration and insist on full payment of tax without the assessee being responsible for delay in disposal of the appeal or any other such similar material change in circumstances

  11. ITAT Mumbai · 09 Oct 2019
    Due to peculiar nature of the product and constant mixing and re-mixing of diamonds obtained from AEs and non-AEs, it would not be feasible to maintain records to determine segmental profitability to work out internal TNMM. The undisputed position that emerges is that the assessee has carried out certain international transactions during the year with its AE and benchmarked the same using TNMM method in its Transfer Pricing Study which has been accepted by Ld.

    (2019) TaxCorp(LJ) 20231 (SC) · Section 43CA

  14. ITAT Hyderabad · 08 Oct 2019
    From the penalty order, we find that the assessee has not filed any Explanation before the A.O. except requesting the A.O. to keep the proceedings in abeyance till the assessee’s appeal before the ITAT is disposed of. The AO, however, concluded the proceedings by observing that the assessee has not submitted any explanation to the show cause notice dated 14.3.2012 issued u/s 271AAA r.w.s. 274.

    JANARDHAN REDDY BEKKERY, HYDERABAD. VERSUS ACIT, CENTRAL CIRCLE-3 (PRESENTLY DCIT, CIRCLE – 6 (1) HYDERABAD.)

  15. ITAT Jaipur · 08 Oct 2019
    Mere reflection of certain transaction in Form 26AS is not determinative of holding such transaction as taxable transaction in the hands of the assessee. However, given that the transaction has been reflected in Form 26AS, the onus is on the assessee to demonstrate that such transaction doesn’t represent real income in its hands.

    M/S JAIPUR STOCK SECURITIES LTD. VERSUS THE ACIT, CIRCLE-06, JAIPUR

    (2019) TaxCorp(LJ) 20229 (ITAT-JAIPUR) · https://taxcorp.in/FileOpenDT.aspx?ID=78294&Category=ITAT&CategoryType=Zip

  16. ITAT Chennai · 08 Oct 2019
    The explanation of the assessee is that it was forced to repay the loan in cash on account of business expediency to meet the working capital limits of one the business concern in which he is interested; cannot be considered to be valid explanation for repayment of loan in cash. The fact that assessee accepted loan in cash and repaid the loan in cash goes to prove that there is active collusion with the lender in evading the taxes.

    (2019) TaxCorp(LJ) 20228 (ITAT-CHENNAI) · https://taxcorp.in/FileOpenDT.aspx?ID=78295&Category=ITAT&CategoryType=Zip

  17. ITAT Cochin · 08 Oct 2019
    AO cannot remain passive in the face of a claim, which calls for further enquiry to know the genuineness of it. In other words, he must carry out investigation where the facts of the case so require and also decide the matter judiciously on the basis of materials collected by him as also those produced by the assessee before him. AO was statutorily required to make the assessment u/s 143(3) after scrutiny and not in a summary manner as contemplated by Sub-section (1) of Section 143.
