The ITAT upheld the exercise of revisional jurisdiction under s.263 of the I.T. Act, finding the assessing officer's acceptance of claimed long-term capital gains purportedly exempt under s.10(38) to be erroneous and prejudicial to the revenue because he failed to verify crucial transactional particulars - mode of trade, dematerialization and debit/credit entries in the taxpayer's demat account - before allowing exemption on penny-stock transactions. The Tribunal endorsed that s.263 may be invoked even where facts are disclosed or issues are debatable if the AO did not examine them as per law, and consequently dismissed the taxpayer's appeal.
