<h1>Supreme Court limits tax circular retroactive effect. Appeals allowed, matters remitted for re-adjudication.</h1> <h3>The Commissioner of Income Tax Bangalore I & ANR Versus M/s Gemini Distilleries</h3> The Commissioner of Income Tax Bangalore I & ANR Versus M/s Gemini Distilleries - [2017] 398 ITR 343 Issues:1. Retrospective operation of instructions/circular issued by the Central Board of Direct Taxes on 9.2.2011.Analysis:The Supreme Court addressed the issue of whether the instructions/circular issued by the Central Board of Direct Taxes on 9.2.2011 would have retrospective operation. In a previous case, the Court had ruled that the said instructions were not retrospective and would only apply to cases filed after 2011. The respondents in the present case relied on a circular from December 2015, but the Court held that the Central Board of Direct Taxes cannot issue a circular with retrospective operation. Therefore, the Court allowed the Appeals, set aside the High Court's order from 2.11.2011, and remitted the matter(s) back to the High Court for re-adjudication based on merit and in accordance with the law. The Civil Appeals were allowed accordingly.
