    <title>Condonation of delayed AY 2024-25 return upheld under Section 119(2)(b) due to key staff resignations</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=94612</link>
    <description>HC allowed the petition filed u/s 119(2)(b) of the IT Act, holding that successive resignations of key accounts personnel at the petitioner-company&#039;s remote location constituted reasonable and sufficient cause for delay in filing the return for AY 2024-25. HC found that the non-filing within the statutory deadline occurred despite exercise of ordinary business care and prudence and was beyond the petitioner&#039;s control. The impugned order dated 18.08.2025 passed by the PCIT rejecting condonation of delay was quashed. HC directed the concerned authority to treat the return and audit report for AY 2024-25 as having been filed within the prescribed period and to grant all consequential benefits and reliefs in accordance with the IT Act and applicable circulars/notifications.</description>
