Tribunal Upholds CIT(A) Decisions on Cross Appeals for A.Y. 2011-12 & 2012-13
The Tribunal dismissed the cross appeals by the assessee and the Revenue, upholding the decisions of the ld. CIT(A) for A.Y 2011-12 and 2012-13. The disallowance of commission on sales was deleted as the disallowance lacked specific findings. The addition due to a difference in sales figures was removed after the assessee provided a reconciliation. The unaccounted credit entry was accepted as the other party corrected the entry, leading to the deletion of the addition.
Issues involved: The judgment involves cross appeals by the assessee and the Revenue against the order of the ld. CIT(A) for A.Y 2012-13, with the Revenue also filing an appeal for A.Y 2011-12.
Issue 1: Disallowance of commission on sales - The Assessing Officer disallowed a portion of commission paid to a related party, stating it was not entirely for business reasons. - The assessee argued that the provisions of section 40A(2)(b) did not apply as both parties were fellow subsidiaries of the holding company. - The ld. CIT(A) held that adhoc disallowance without specific findings is impermissible and directed the Assessing Officer to delete the disallowance. - The Tribunal agreed, noting that the disallowance was baseless and upheld the deletion by the ld. CIT(A).
Issue 2: Difference in sales figures - The Assessing Officer added an amount due to a variance in sales figures between the VAT Return and financial statements. - The assessee provided a reconciliation showing no difference in turnover and pointed out the Assessing Officer's oversight of Schedule 11 in the financial statements. - The ld. CIT(A) found no sales outside the books and deleted the addition, which was upheld by the Tribunal.
Issue 3: Unaccounted credit entry - A credit amount from a transaction with another company was not reflected in the assessee's books, leading to an addition by the Assessing Officer. - The assessee explained that the other party corrected the entry in their books, and since no goods were received, no entry was made by the assessee. - The ld. CIT(A) accepted this accounting treatment and directed the deletion of the addition, which was upheld by the Tribunal.
In conclusion, the Tribunal dismissed the appeal of the assessee and the Revenue, upholding the decisions of the ld. CIT(A) in all three issues.
