https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=95899 Adjustment u/s 143(1) denying the alternate claim of exemption u/s 11 solely for non-filing of audit report in Form 10B was held impermissible, since the defect was curable and the claim involved a debatable issue that could not be adjusted at the processing stage, particularly without providing an opportunity u/s 139(9). The processing also could not disallow the entire expenses, as only income embedded in gross receipts is taxable and eligible revenue expenditure (including depreciation), incurred exclusively to earn such income, must be allowed in computing income under ss. 56-57. The impugned order was set aside and the matter remanded for fresh decision after due opportunity. - ITAT en-us Sat, 10 Jan 2026 08:25:22 +0530 Sat, 10 Jan 2026 08:25:22 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=95899 Adjustment u/s 143(1) denying the alternate claim of exemption u/s 11 solely for non-filing of audit report in Form 10B was held impermissible, since the defect was curable and the claim involved a debatable issue that could not be adjusted at the processing stage, particularly without providing an opportunity u/s 139(9).
