Income Tax assessment order quashed for non-compliance with time limit to give effect to DRP directions.

Case Laws     Income Tax

September 17, 2024

The Tribunal held that the assessment order passed by the Assessing Officer was barred by limitation and quashed it. As per Section 144C(13) read with Section 143(3), the Assessing Officer is required to give effect to the directions of the Dispute Resolution Panel (DRP) within one month from the end of the month in which such directions are received. In the instant case, the DRP's directions were received by the Assessing Officer on 03/10/2018, and the last date for passing the assessment order was 30/11/2018. However, the Assessing Officer passed the assessment order on 06/12/2018, which was beyond the prescribed time limit. The Tribunal relied on the decisions in Envestnet Asset Management (India) (P.) Ltd. and Dentsply India (P.) Ltd., where similar assessment orders passed after the expiry of the time limit were set aside. Accordingly, the Tribunal quashed the assessment orders for the relevant assessment years, being barred by limitation.
