The Income Tax Appellate Tribunal allowed the assessee's appeal and held that there was a reasonable cause for the failure to furnish the audit report as required u/s 44AB of the Income Tax Act. The accountant responsible for maintaining the firm's accounts had abruptly resigned before finalizing the accounts for the relevant year. Upon rejoining after being offered a revised salary, the accountant completed the accounts, which were subsequently audited and filed. The Tribunal considered the explanations offered by the assessee and found that the conduct demonstrated a reasonable cause for the failure as per Section 273B. The assessee had committed only a technical breach without any loss to the government's exchequer, as no additions were made during the assessment proceedings.
