of <h1>Tribunal Grants Stay on Tax Demand, Considers Deduction Issue</h1> <h3>Kodiak Networks (India) Private Ltd. Versus The Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax, Circle 11 (5), Bangalore. </h3> The Tribunal granted a stay on the recovery of an outstanding demand of &8377; 1,28,14,177 for six months or until the appeal was disposed of, based ... - Issues Involved: Application for stay of recovery of outstanding demand u/s 10A of the Act and u/s 92C of the Act.Summary:The assessee filed an application seeking a stay on the recovery of an outstanding demand of &8377; 1,28,14,177, which arose from two additions made by the assessee. Firstly, an addition was made on account of allowing claim for deduction u/s. 10A of the Act on a reduced figure than claimed. Secondly, an addition was made on account of determination of ALP u/s. 92C of the Act. The assessee argued that the deduction u/s. 10A allowed by revenue authorities was contrary to a decision of the Hon'ble High Court of Karnataka and that the ALP adjustment addition could not stand based on various decisions referenced in the stay petition. The assessee also highlighted their poor financial position, supported by a bank statement showing a low cash balance. The revenue authorities contended that the additions were justified.After considering the submissions, the Tribunal found that the issue regarding deduction u/s. 10A was in favor of the assessee based on the High Court decision, and the ALP adjustment issue was also decided in favor of the assessee in various decisions referenced. The Tribunal concluded that the assessee had established a prima facie case. Taking into account the balance of convenience, relative hardship, and the financial position of the assessee, the Tribunal granted a stay on the recovery of the outstanding demand for six months or until the appeal was disposed of, whichever was earlier. The assessee was directed to pay a sum of &8377; 10,00,000 towards the outstanding demand by a specified date. The appeal was scheduled for an expedited hearing, and no separate notice of hearing was to be sent to the parties.In conclusion, the Tribunal allowed the stay petition, providing relief to the assessee in light of the legal arguments and financial circumstances presented.
