2015 (5) TMI 530 - MADRAS HIGH COURTStock transfer to Calcutta - Levy of tax on DEPB licences in Calcutta - Held that:- On perusal of the impugned order, it is seen that the Assessing Officer is solely guided by the proposal given by the Enforcement Wing Officers and there is no independent application of mind by the Assessing Officer, while assessing the petitioner's returns. Hence, the impugned proceedings are held to be bad in law. Furthermore, the contention that no penalty is leviable, was specifically raised by the petitioner, since the assessments were completed by taking materials from the books of account produced by the petitioner. In such circumstances, the question of levy of penalty does not arise and the fundamental aspect has also been ignored by the Assessing Officer. Therefore, the petitioner is entitled to succeed. - Decided in favour of assessee.
