Tribunal rules in favor, deletes unjustified disallowances by Assessing Officer, CIT(A)
The Tribunal ruled in favor of the assessee, deleting the disallowances made by the Assessing Officer and sustained by the CIT(A) due to lack of justification and basis for the disallowances. The disallowance of expenditure for denting & painting expenses and job charges was found unjustified as they were related to warranty schemes, with no non-business expenses identified. Additionally, the disallowance of rebate & discount expenses and various expenses was considered arbitrary and lacking basis, leading to the deletion of these disallowances.
Issues: Appeal against order of Ld. CIT(A), Bikaner regarding disallowance of expenditure and confirmation of additions under various heads.
Analysis:
1. Ground No. 1 - Disallowance of Expenditure: - The assessee filed the return declaring income of Rs. 27,45,020, which was later scrutinized. The Assessing Officer disallowed Rs. 75,000 each for denting & painting expenses and job charges due to claimed excess expenses compared to service charges receipts. The CIT(A) sustained the disallowance, stating expenses were accounted for on internal vouchers. Assessee argued citing case laws. - The Tribunal found the disallowance unjustified as expenses were related to warranty schemes, and no non-business expenses were identified. The disallowance was deleted.
2. Ground No. 2 - Confirmation of Additions: - The Assessing Officer disallowed Rs. 87,312 from rebate & discount expenses and Rs. 1,10,000 from various expenses due to self-made vouchers. The CIT(A) reduced the disallowance to 15% and 10% respectively. Assessee contended that no non-business expenses were identified. - The Tribunal observed no defects in audited accounts and no specific non-business expenses. The disallowance was considered arbitrary, lacking basis, and not justified. Therefore, the disallowance was deleted, and the appeal was allowed.
In conclusion, the Tribunal ruled in favor of the assessee, deleting the disallowances made by the Assessing Officer and sustained by the CIT(A) due to lack of justification and basis for the disallowances.
