    <title>Digital Signature on Form 10-IC Valid Under Section 115BAA, Denial of Benefits Set Aside</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=90238</link>
    <description>The ITAT upheld the CIT(A)&#039;s decision, dismissing the Revenue&#039;s appeal regarding the denial of benefits under the new tax regime u/s 115BAA due to an alleged defective Form 10-IC submission. The tribunal clarified that the digital signature on Form 10-IC, submitted by the assessee through its key persons registered on the income tax portal, is system-generated and varies based on the principal contact at the time of download without altering the form&#039;s substantive content. Consequently, the AO erred in rejecting the form on grounds of signature discrepancies. The form&#039;s validity was affirmed, entitling the assessee to the lower tax rate under the new regime as claimed.</description>
