Political contribution deductions require assessee-specific proof before cash-back allegations can justify disallowance or unexplained-money additions...
The HC quashed the order under s.119(2)(b) and condoned the delay in filing income tax return for AY 2020-21, allowing the petitioner to claim refund belatedly. The court recognized genuine hardship faced by the non-resident petitioner who was prevented from filing returns due to COVID-19 travel restrictions and late deposit of TDS by the property purchaser (M/s. Ashutosh Builders) on 11.06.2022. The petitioner had already furnished income computation with long-term capital gain details in response to the tax authority's notice. The HC determined these circumstances constituted sufficient grounds for condonation of delay under the Income Tax Act provisions.
