of <h1>High Court affirms ITAT's decision on deduction claim under Section 80IB(10) of Income Tax Act.</h1> <h3>Income Tax Officer Versus Saket Corporation</h3> Income Tax Officer Versus Saket Corporation - TMI Issues:1. Interpretation of Section 80IB of the Income Tax Act.2. Application of completion certificate requirement for deduction.3. Consideration of facts and law by the CIT(A) and ITAT.Analysis:1. The case involved the interpretation of Section 80IB of the Income Tax Act, specifically regarding the eligibility for deduction in a housing project approved in 2004. The appellant challenged the ITAT's decision, arguing that the provision of Section 80IB should apply to projects approved in 2004, emphasizing Section 80IB(10)(a)(i) of the Act.2. The dispute centered on the requirement of obtaining a completion certificate within four years from the date of project approval to claim deduction under Section 80IB(10) of the Act. The AO disallowed the deduction as the completion certificate was only granted for 20 out of 43 units within the specified timeframe. The ITAT, however, relied on a Delhi High Court decision and allowed the deduction, stating that the completion certificate condition was not applicable in this case.3. The CIT(A) and the ITAT had differing views on the matter. The CIT(A) upheld the AO's decision to disallow the deduction, while the ITAT overturned it based on the Delhi High Court decision and the completion of construction for all 43 units within the prescribed time limit. The ITAT considered the facts and law discussed by the CIT(A) and concluded that the appellant was entitled to the deduction under Section 80IB(10) of the Act.4. The High Court, in its judgment, referred to a previous case where deduction was allowed despite technical issues with the building use permission. Applying a similar rationale to the current case, the Court affirmed the ITAT's decision, stating that since the construction of all 43 units was completed within the timeframe and the appellant had applied for the necessary permissions, they were entitled to the deduction under Section 80IB(10) of the Act.5. Ultimately, the Court found no substantial question of law in the appeal raised by the revenue and dismissed the Tax Appeal, upholding the ITAT's decision to allow the deduction claimed by the appellant under Section 80IB(10) of the Income Tax Act.
