Purposive interpretation of residential house exemption: unregistered purchase agreement alone does not defeat relief, but investment must be verified...
The ITAT recalled its earlier order because it had decided an issue not arising from the Revenue's appeal, creating an apparent factual error. On rehearing, it held that unpaid service tax liability was not disallowable under section 43B where the assessee had not claimed any deduction and the amount had not been debited to the profit and loss account. Following the co-ordinate Bench ruling for another year, the Tribunal rejected the Revenue's challenge and dismissed the appeal.
