Political contribution deductions require assessee-specific proof before cash-back allegations can justify disallowance or unexplained-money additions...
HC addressed a dispute regarding surcharge and purchase tax recovery. The court found inherent inconsistency in the State's argument - if surcharge differs from tax, Section 21(7)'s statutory bar against stay of recovery wouldn't apply; conversely, treating surcharge as tax would entitle the petitioner to Rule 15(2)(b) benefits, making recovery challengeable. Given petitioner's status as a Public Sector Undertaking with demonstrable ability to pay if ultimately required, HC granted stay on recovery proceedings pending resolution of Reference Applications before MSTT. The tribunal was directed to expeditiously decide these applications. Balance of convenience favored the petitioner, resulting in temporary suspension of recovery actions until MSTT's final determination.
