Landmark Ruling of the Apex Court which will directly affect the functioning of several Tribunals including the ITAT. The Union of India shall constitute a National Tribunals Commission which shall act as an independent body to supervise the appointments and functioning of Tribunals, as well as to conduct disciplinary proceedings against members of Tribunals and to take care of administrative and infrastructural needs of the Tribunals, in an appropriate manner. Till the National Tribunals Commission is constituted, a separate wing in the Ministry of Finance, Government of India shall be established to cater to the requirements of the Tribunals.Gujarat Maritime Board vs. Asiatic Steel Industries
The Supreme Court bemoaned the lackadaisical attitude of the Government authorities in functioning. The court noted that the number of litigations in our country is on the rise, for small and trivial matters, people and sometimes the Central and the State Governments and their instrumentalities like banks, nationalised or private, come to courts may be due to ego clashes or to save the officers' skin.
Armoury International Vs.Asst. CIT 21(3)
When the return of income and the assessed income are the same, the machinery provision for levy of penalty u/s. 271(1)(c) fails, as the penalty u/s. 271(1)(c) is levied with reference to the tax sought to be evaded, which is the difference between the income returned and that assessed by the A.O. The Hon'ble Delhi High Court decision in the case of CIT vs. SAS Pharmaceuticals [2011] 335 ITR 259 (Del) has expounded that penalty u/s. 271(1)(c) can only be levied if in the course of proceedings, the A.O. is satisfied that there is a concealment or furnishing of inaccurate particulars. The words ''in the course of any proceedings under this Act mean the assessment proceedings'. However, the question 'whether there is concealment or inaccurate particulars' has to be determined with reference to the returned income. Accordingly, in the background of the aforesaid discussion and precedent, we set aside the order of the ld. CIT(A) and delete the levy of penalty.Bombay High Court To Resume Physical Hearings Of Tax Matters
