Reasonable Cause for Late Return: penalty under section 271(1)(c) unsustainable where disclosure, audit filing and voluntary offer showed no concealme...
Deduction under Chapter 80-series was held not forfeited by mere procedural delay in filing Form No.10CCB where the assessees filed the return within the due date and claimed the deduction; the Tribunal treated late filing of the form as a procedural defect, noting the form was uploaded before CPC processing and therefore processing under section 143(1) could not disallow the deduction solely on that ground. The Tribunal set aside the disallowance, directed recomputation of tax on book profits and remitted the matter to the AO for verification of the deduction quantum with opportunity to the assessee.
