2012 (9) TMI 1068 - AT - Income Tax

Issues involved:
The judgment involves issues related to the deletion of addition on account of loss on sale of repossessed assets and disallowance of extra depreciation on computer peripherals/accessories in the revenue's appeal, and the confirmation of adhoc disallowance of expenses in the assessee's appeal.

Revenue's Appeal:
1. The revenue's appeal challenged the deletion of addition on account of loss on sale of repossessed assets and extra depreciation on computer peripherals/accessories.
2. The Assessing Officer disallowed the claim of the assessee regarding the loss on sale of repossessed assets based on a previous court decision, but the High Court ruled in favor of the assessee.
3. The High Court also decided that depreciation at the rate of 60% is allowable on computer peripherals, supporting the assessee's position.
4. The revenue's appeal was dismissed based on the High Court's decisions and the lack of infirmity in the CIT(A)'s order.

Assessee's Appeal:
1. The assessee's appeal primarily contested the adhoc disallowance of expenses.
2. The Assessing Officer made a 10% adhoc disallowance of expenses without sufficient reasoning, which the CIT(A) confirmed.
3. The assessee argued that the expenses were legitimate business expenditures, supported by books of accounts and vouchers, and the disallowance was arbitrary.
4. The High Court emphasized the need for the assessee to substantiate the business purpose of the expenses and remitted the issue back to the Assessing Officer for further verification.
5. The assessee's appeal was allowed for statistical purposes, indicating a partial victory for the assessee.

In conclusion, the judgment addressed issues related to the deletion of additions and adhoc disallowance of expenses, highlighting the importance of substantiating business expenditures and following proper assessment procedures.
