<h1>Dispute Over Non-Genuine Donation Exemption</h1> <h3>Pran Nath Educational Medical Versus. Dy. DIT (E)</h3> The appeal and cross objection arose from the CIT(A)'s order deleting a non-genuine donation amount. The appellant contended the sum was an accommodation ... - Issues involved: The issues involved in this case are the deletion of a non-genuine donation amount, application of income for charitable purposes, and the validity of assessment proceedings u/s 147.Deletion of Non-genuine Donation Amount: The appeal and cross objection arose from the CIT(A)'s order deleting the addition of Rs. 1,50,226 representing a non-genuine donation, following a decision of the Delhi High Court. The appellant contended that the sum was an accommodation entry obtained by paying an equivalent amount in cash to the entry provider. The exemption u/s 11 was granted without considering adverse inferences by the Assessing Officer, resulting in a reduction in income by Rs. 9,42,706.Application of Income for Charitable Purposes: The CIT(A) concluded that the assessee proved the identity, creditworthiness, and genuineness of the transaction. The donors were assessed to tax, and the donation was treated as corpus donation based on the Keshav Social Charitable Foundation case. The benefit of accumulation of income u/s 11(2) was allowed as Form No.10 was timely filed. The revenue appealed, arguing that the High Court decision was not accepted by the department, but the assessee's counsel contended that the judgment was binding.Validity of Assessment Proceedings u/s 147: The learned counsel did not press the cross objection challenging the validity of assessment proceedings u/s 147. The result of the discussion was that the assessee was entitled to deduction u/s 11(1) of all expenses except the application of income shown at Rs. 6,245.This judgment highlights the importance of proving the genuineness of transactions, the application of income for charitable purposes, and the adherence to legal provisions in assessment proceedings.
