....appeal. Considering the period of delay and reasons deposed at para 2 of affidavit given by Director of assessee company, we find it sufficient cause hence condone the delay and admit the appeal for adjudication. 3. Brief facts of the case is that the assessee filed its return of income on 18.12.2020 declaring a total income of Rs. 38,10,910/-. The return of income was processed on 26.12.2021 u/s 143(1) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 ('Act' in short).

....eported the said amount under the incorrect head; therefore AO CPC has made the addition of the said amount to the total income as per the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961. It may be mentioned that if any incorrect particulars have been reported in the return of income, the only recourse available is, filing the revised return of income. There is no such provision in the Income Tax Act which allows to revise the particulars of income without filing a revised return of income.

....uine claim of the assessee cannot be denied especially in the circumstances as narrated above. As such the assessee has claimed deduction u/s 43B of the Act and therefore in our considered view, the same should have been allowed by the authorities below. 12. The Allahabad High Court in CIT v.

If the CIT refuses to give relief to the assessee, in such circumstances, he would be acting dehors the powers under the Act and the provisions of the Act and, therefore is duty-bound to give relief to an assessee, where due, in accordance with the provisions of the Act.
