    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=85265</link>
    <description>AT upheld provisional attachment of properties determined to be benami transactions where tribal land was purchased by non-tribal persons through a proxy owner. The beneficial owner attempted to circumvent restrictions under Chhattisgarh Land Revenue Code by using a tribal person as benamidar. The fiduciary relationship exception under s.2(9)(A)(ii) of PBPT Act was rejected as the arrangement aimed to contravene law. Properties at serial 1-3, 11-16 confirmed as benami. Matter remanded for verification of properties 4-10 to determine benami status. Agreement and authority letter presented by appellants deemed unreliable due to discrepancies and collusion between parties. Subsequent property transfers to beneficial owner&#039;s son declared void u/s 6.</description>
