2016 (5) TMI 966 - AT - Income TaxRejection of books of accounts - Method of accounting and accounting standard - Held that:- It is neither proper nor justified to hold that the books of account maintained by the assessee did not present true and complete picture of its accounts and financial transactions. It is a case where accounts of the assessee are correct and complete. Method of accounting and accounting standard has been regularly followed. True and correct profits of the business of the assessee could be deduced from such books of accounts. In this view of the matter the assessing authority could not change the method regularly adopted by the assessee from Project Completion Method to Percentage Completion Method on irrelevant considerations. We are, therefore, satisfied that provisions of section 145(3) are not attracted in this case. The Ld. CIT (A), is found to have erred in upholding the decision of Ld. Assessing Authority to invoke section 145(3) of the Act and making assessment in the manner provided under section 144 of the Act. We, therefore, set aside the decision in this regard - Decided in favour of assessee
