Political contribution deductions require assessee-specific proof before cash-back allegations can justify disallowance or unexplained-money additions...
HC quashed the Revisional Authority's order dated 31/03/2023, allowing the petition. Petitioner had initially approached wrong forum (CESTAT) to challenge Commissioner (Appeals) order regarding CENVAT credit recovery and rebate claims. Under Section 14 Limitation Act, petitioner was entitled to benefit of wrong forum approach, and revision application was filed within prescribed three months from CESTAT order date. CESTAT correctly held petitioner entitled to CENVAT credit under Chapter Heading 847490 since classification dispute was not proposed in show cause notice. Revisional Authority erred in taking contrary view to CESTAT's judicial determination on identical facts regarding product classification, violating judicial propriety. Demand for CENVAT credit disallowance was properly set aside.
