ITAT adjudicated a dispute concerning foreign tax credit under Section 90, involving an ex-parte assessment order. The tribunal identified insufficient verification of the assessee's foreign tax credit claim. The appellate order mandates the assessee, based in Australia, to submit comprehensive documentation to the Assessing Officer (AO) within 90 days. The AO is directed to conduct a thorough verification, provide a hearing opportunity, and subsequently determine the legitimacy of the foreign tax credit and deduction claims. The entire appeal is remanded to the AO for detailed examination and potential reconsideration of the original assessment.
