Tribunal upholds assessee's claim under Income-tax Act, emphasizing past acceptance and lack of justification
The Tribunal allowed the appeal, upholding the assessee's claim under section 80IB(11A) of the Income-tax Act for the assessment year in question. The Tribunal emphasized that a claim accepted in previous years cannot be arbitrarily disallowed without valid reasons or changes in circumstances. Relying on case law, it held that the claim should be allowed based on past acceptance and lack of justification for disallowance, overturning the Assessing Officer and CIT(A)'s decisions.
Issues involved: Disallowance of deduction u/s. 80IB(11A) of the Income-tax Act, 1961 for A.Y. 2006-07.
Summary: The appellant's grievance was regarding the disallowance of deduction u/s. 80IB(11A) for income derived from Anjali Warehouse and Balemia Warehouse. The Assessing Officer rejected the claim stating lack of evidence for handling and transportation in addition to storage. The CIT(A) upheld this decision, leading to the appeal. The Tribunal noted that the claim had been allowed in previous assessment years without valid reasons for disallowance in the current year. Citing precedents, the Tribunal emphasized that once a claim is accepted, it cannot be arbitrarily disallowed in subsequent years. Relying on case law, the Tribunal held that the claim under s. 80IB should be allowed, as the past acceptance of the claim was not disturbed.
