https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=87229 ITAT adjudicated a case involving penalty under Section 43 of the Black Money Act for non-reporting of foreign assets in Schedule FA. Despite technical non-disclosure, the tribunal found no malafide intention as the assessee had previously disclosed the foreign asset, offered perquisite value, and paid TDS. The tribunal emphasized that the Act's purpose is to address undisclosed foreign income, not to punish bonafide technical breaches. Considering the assessee's transparent actions and detailed explanations, the tribunal deleted the imposed penalty, effectively allowing the assessee's appeal and recognizing the difference between intentional concealment and inadvertent procedural omission. en-us Tue, 08 Apr 2025 08:29:01 +0530 Tue, 08 Apr 2025 08:29:03 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=87229 ITAT adjudicated a case involving penalty under Section 43 of the Black Money Act for non-reporting of foreign assets in Schedule FA.
