    <title>Income Tax Tribunal Strikes Down 37% Surcharge for Taxpayer with Income Below Rs. 5 Crore Threshold, Correcting Excessive Tax Levy</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=87975</link>
    <description>ITAT held that surcharge cannot be levied at 37% when assessee&#039;s total income is Rs. 3,48,040/-, which is significantly below the Rs. 5 crore threshold for maximum surcharge rate. The tribunal determined that surcharge is only leviable when income exceeds Rs. 50,00,000, and the maximum 37% surcharge applies only if income exceeds Rs. 5 crore. Consequently, the CPC&#039;s imposition of 37% surcharge was erroneous, and the appeal by the assessee was allowed, effectively canceling the excessive surcharge.</description>
