https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=89269 ITAT adjudicated a tax penalty dispute, finding the Assessment Officer's (AO) penalty notices under sections 270A and 271AAB were legally defective. The tribunal held that the notices were vague, failed to specify precise charges, and did not provide the assessee a fair opportunity to defend against alleged income reporting violations. Consequently, the tribunal quashed the penalty proceedings for assessment years 2018-19 and 2019-20, determining the AO's actions were jurisdictionally flawed and violated principles of natural justice. All appeals filed by the assessee were allowed, effectively nullifying the proposed penalties. en-us Tue, 10 Jun 2025 08:43:14 +0530 Tue, 10 Jun 2025 08:43:16 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=89269 ITAT adjudicated a tax penalty dispute, finding the Assessment Officer's (AO) penalty notices under sections 270A and 271AAB were legally defective.
