2021 (12) TMI 1 - ITAT MUMBAIRevision u/s 263 - reopening of the assessment of the assessee in view of the provision u/s.263 - long term capital gain on account of sale of penny stock - As argued by assessee that once the issue has already been raised by the Assessing Officer and thereafter, the claim of the assessee was denied then, in the said circumstances, the assessment could not be revised in view of provision u/s.263 - HELD THAT:- As decided in MRS. MANISHA AJAY SHAH VERSUS PRINCIPAL CIT-30, MUMBAI [2020 (10) TMI 660 - ITAT MUMBAI] AO has issued a questionnaire wherein specific information was sought on transaction of equity shares and working of short term capital gain/long term capital gain. The assessee furnished a detailed reply to the notice issued under section 142(1) of the Act, wherein the assessee while replying to the query on transaction of shares, informed that a declaration under IDS 2016 has been made in respect of long term capital gain arising on sale of shares to GCM Securities Ltd. Ostensibly, the Assessing Officer after examining the documents accepted the same and made no addition. Merely for the reason that the Assessing Officer has taken a plausible view after examining the records that is not acceptable to the PCIT, would not make the assessment order erroneous. In the present case twin conditions set out in section 263 are not satisfied and hence, the PCIT wrongly assumed revisional jurisdiction. Thus it is quite clear that the fact of the present case is quite similar to the fact of the case under consideration. Taking into all these facts, we are of the view that the revision of assessment u/s.263 is not liable to be sustainable in the eyes of law. Therefore, we set aside the same and allowed the appeal of the assessee.
