ITAT adjudicated a tax dispute regarding set-off of business losses against short-term capital gains. The tribunal rejected the assessee's contention that prima facie adjustments under section 143(1) cannot be made for debatable issues. While acknowledging no explicit statutory provision clearly permitting set-off of brought forward business losses against short-term capital gains from business asset sales, the tribunal remanded the matter to the Jurisdictional Assessing Officer. The AO was directed to examine the issue comprehensively, considering sections 50 and 71(3), and provide a reasoned determination after affording the assessee an opportunity to present detailed submissions, effectively allowing ground No.4 for statistical purposes.
