Income Tax

March 23, 2024

Penalty proceedings u/s 271(1)(c) - Failure of the assessee to explain the source of cash deposit in the bank account - burden of proof - The ITAT acknowledged the difference in the burden of proof between penalty proceedings and assessment proceedings. Mere disallowance or addition in quantum proceedings does not automatically warrant penalty imposition under Section 271(1)(c) of the Act. - Considering the mitigating circumstances, including the deceased status of the appellant and the difficulty in independently proving circumstantial facts, the tribunal concluded that the penalty imposition was not justified and directed its reversal and deletion.
