Delayed Tax Appeal Dismissed: Procedural Noncompliance Trumps Substantive Merits in Section 144C Assessment Challenge

May 3, 2025

Case Laws     Income Tax     SC

SC dismissed the SLP due to a 295-day delay in filing, which remained unexplained by the petitioners. The underlying tax matter concerned an assessment order under Section 144C, where the FAO's order was deemed time-barred two years after DRP directions. The HC previously ruled that the original return of income must be accepted, entitling the petitioner to a refund with applicable interest. The procedural requirement mandated completion within 30 days of the order's upload. The SLP was consequently rejected on procedural grounds of delay, without examining the substantive tax dispute.
