The Commissioner initiated proceedings under section 263 of the Act, directing the Assessing Officer to consider the payments to truck owners and disallow them under section 40A(3) of the Act. The Commissioner found that the payments were not allowable due to a violation of provisions. The CIT(A) held that no disallowance was warranted under section 40A(3) but confirmed the disallowance under section 69C as the source of payment was not explained. The Tribunal reversed this finding, stating that the order of the CIT(A) in making disallowance under section 69C was not warranted, as the issue was limited to the violation of section 40A(3) only.Issue 2: Disallowance under section 40A(3) of the Income Tax ActThe Assessing Officer, after the Commissioner's directions, made a disallowance under section 40A(3) of the Act. The CIT(A) initially held that no disallowance was to be made under this section. However, the CIT(A) later stated that the assessee failed to explain the source of payment, leading to the disallowance under section 69C. The Tribunal found that the Commissioner's specific directions were to disallow the payments under section 40A(3), and the Assessing Officer acted accordingly. The Tribunal allowed the grounds of appeal raised by the assessee, reversing the CIT(A)'s finding on disallowance under section 69C.Issue 3: Failure to provide show cause notice to the assesseeThe assessee raised a ground of appeal regarding the failure of the CIT(A) to provide a show cause notice before maintaining the disallowance under section 69C. The Tribunal did not address this issue specifically in its analysis of the case.In conclusion, the Tribunal allowed the appeal of the assessee, reversing the disallowance under section 69C and upholding the disallowance under section 40A(3) of the Income Tax Act.
