Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals)-5, Ludhiana, for A.Y. 2019-20, emanating from the order of the ld. DCIT, Central Circle-1, Jalandhar, passed u/s 144 of the Income Tax Act.Issue 2:The dispute centered around the treatment of an amount of Rs. 12,50,321 as Income from undisclosed sources under section 69A of the Income Tax Act and the application of tax provisions under Section 115BBE. The assessee contended that the amount was duly shown as income under the head 'Income from Business or Profession' in the return of income and was disclosed as business income during a survey under section 133A of the Income Tax Act.Issue 3:The primary contention was the proper basis for converting the miscellaneous business income into non-business income. The assessee argued that all incomes earned were solely from the business, and there was no evidence to suggest otherwise.Issue 4:The application of provisions of section 69A and the levy of tax under section 115BBE were challenged. The Tribunal held that when no separate source of income was identified, any income arising should be treated as part of the normal business income. The conversion of business income into other income and the application of section 69A were deemed improper and illegal, leading to the quashing of the tax levy under section 115BBE.This judgment addressed the issues raised by the assessee regarding the treatment of undisclosed income and the tax implications under specific sections of the Income Tax Act. The Tribunal found in favor of the assessee, emphasizing the importance of proper basis for income conversion and the identification of separate sources of income before applying specific tax provisions. The decision highlighted the necessity for a clear connection between income sources and tax calculations, ultimately leading to the allowance of the assessee's appeal.
