of <h1>High Court upholds reassessment under Income Tax Act, disallows deduction claim</h1> <h3>Jawand Sons, Ludhiana Versus Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals)-II, Ludhiana</h3> Jawand Sons, Ludhiana Versus Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals)-II, Ludhiana - [2010] 326 ITR 39 (P&H) Issues:1. Interpretation of Section 147 Proviso for initiation and conclusion of proceedings without discharging department's onus.Analysis:The appellant-assessee filed an appeal under Section 260-A of the Income Tax Act, 1961 against the ITAT's order for the assessment year 2001-02. The case involved the deduction claimed by the assessee on account of export incentives and interest received under Section 80-IB of the Act. The initial assessment granted the deduction, but a notice under Section 148 was issued for reassessment on the grounds of escaped income. The reassessment disallowed the deduction claimed by the assessee on account of export incentives and interest received under Section 80-IB of the Act. The appellant argued that the reassessment proceedings were not justified as all material facts were fully disclosed during the initial assessment. However, the court held that under Section 147 of the Act, the Assessing Officer has wide powers to initiate proceedings even if the assessee had fully disclosed material facts, as long as there is a reason to believe that income has escaped assessment. The court found that the appellant was not entitled to claim the deduction on account of Duty Draw Back and DEPB incentives under Section 80-IB of the Act as they do not fall within the expression 'profits derived from industrial undertaking.'The court concluded that no substantial question of law arose from the ITAT's order, as it was found that the reassessment proceedings were rightly initiated based on the belief that income had escaped assessment. The court upheld the decision that the appellant was not entitled to claim the deduction on account of Duty Draw Back and DEPB incentives under Section 80-IB of the Act. Therefore, the court dismissed the appeal, finding no illegality in the ITAT's order and no substantial question of law arising from it.
