Head Note / Extract:
Validity of reopening of assessment - Short Term Capital Gain (STCG) on sale of asset - property owned by co-owners - addition is made by invoking of deeming provision of section 50C - AO made addition solely on the basis of information received from Sub-Registrar Office for charging the additional stamp value for transfer of land as per Jantri rate of Stamp Valuation Authority - HELD THAT:- We accept the contention of ld. AR for the assessee that once, the similar STCG offered by the co-owner has been accepted by the revenue, and the assessee is also entitled for similar relief. We find convincing force in the submissions learned AR for the assessee. Hence, the appeal of the assessee is allowed. So far as the objection of learned DR for the Revenue is that the case of co-owner of Shri Dipakbhai Dalpatbhai Rana, no scrutiny assessment was initiated, is concern, we find that this fact was brought by assessee at the earliest possible action. The Revenue has not taken any action for reopening the case of co-owner and thereby accepted the similar STCG on same transaction, therefore, in our view, the assessee cannot be treated indifferently for similar transaction. Thus, the objection raised by the learned DR for the revenue is not acceptable to us.
