High Court directs revenue to comply with Tribunal stay order, return bank account proceeds to petitioner
The High Court allowed the writ petition, directing the revenue to comply with the Tribunal's stay order and return the attached bank account proceeds to the petitioner within a week. The Court emphasized the importance of respecting Tribunal orders and following due process in such cases.
Issues: 1. Grant of stay by ITAT and subsequent attachment of bank account proceeds by revenue authorities.
Analysis: The case involved the petitioner losing an appeal before the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeal) and the revenue issuing a notice under Section 221 for determined demand amounts due for the assessment year 2007-08. The petitioner then filed an appeal and stay application to the ITAT, which was taken up on 14.02.2014. The ITAT granted a stay subject to certain conditions, including the payment of 50% of the remaining demand. Despite the stay granted by the ITAT, the revenue authorities attached and took away the proceeds of the petitioner's bank account on 19.02.2014. The revenue contended that there was no intimation about the stay and that the concerned assessing officer was not present when the stay was granted. However, the High Court noted that the income tax authorities were represented before the Tribunal when the stay order was pronounced in open court on 14.02.2014. The High Court held that the revenue's argument about lack of intimation was not acceptable and amounted to an overreach of the Tribunal's interim order. The Court directed the revenue to lift the attachment and ensure that the recovered amounts are deposited back in the petitioner's account within a week from the date of the judgment.
In conclusion, the High Court allowed the writ petition and directed the revenue to comply with the above directions. The Court emphasized the importance of respecting the orders of the Tribunal and ensuring that due process is followed in such matters. A copy of the order was to be marked to the Central Board of Direct Taxes for communication.
