Appellate Tribunal Quashes Assessment Order; Incorrect Facts Used for Reopening Case u/s 148A.

July 4, 2024

Case Laws     Income Tax     AT

The ITAT, an Appellate Tribunal, reviewed the validity of an assessment order challenged due to reasons recorded without proper application of mind u/s 148A. The AO based reasons on information from the AIR uploaded by a reporting entity about deposits in a J&K bank account not belonging to the assessee. The ITAT held that the CIT(A) erred in affirming the addition without recognizing the incorrect assumption that the account belonged to the assessee, despite a bank certificate confirming otherwise. The ITAT deemed the reasons recorded as legally flawed, emphasizing that reopening cannot be based on incorrect facts derived from AIR information. Consequently, the ITAT allowed the appeal, concluding that the assessment made on such grounds should be quashed.
