Tribunal dismisses Revenue's appeal on treatment of assessee under Income-tax Act
The Tribunal dismissed the Revenue's appeal against the CIT(A) order regarding the treatment of the assessee in default under section 201(1) of the Income-tax Act, 1961 for the assessment year 2011-12. The Tribunal found merit in the assessee's contention, referencing a previous decision where it was held that the appeal became infructuous due to the absence of any TDS liability. As the Revenue failed to provide a distinguishing decision in their favor, the Tribunal declined to interfere and dismissed the Revenue's grounds. The appeal of the assessee was consequently dismissed.
