Tax Dispute Resolved: No Evidence of Bogus Purchases, Tribunal Upholds Assessee's Accounts and Rejects Department's Claims

June 5, 2025

Case Laws     Income Tax     AT

ITAT adjudicated a tax dispute concerning alleged bogus purchases and income estimation. The tribunal found no evidence of undervalued sales or inflated purchases after examining documentary proof of raw material delivery to the assessee's factory in Himachal Pradesh. The CIT(A) had previously accepted the assessee's books of accounts. The tribunal dismissed the department's appeal, ruling that applying a 5.94% gross profit rate on alleged bogus purchases was unjustified. The court determined that purchases were made at par or lower rates compared to other transactions, negating potential additional income. Consequently, the tribunal allowed the assessee's appeal and rejected the department's claim of embedded profits in the contested purchases.
