(ii) That when appeal of the assessee against the assessment order u/s 143(3) is pending before CIT(A)/NFAC, the CIT is not competent to issue directions to revise the order on that point on the ground that a particular aspect of that point was not dealt with by the Assessing Officer. 3(i) That the direction by PCIT to compute the income from the area "Sold out but the Possession Letter (PL) not issued" and "Not Sold" as elaborated and directed at point Nos. 1 to 7 on page 59-60 of order u/s 263 for all the 20 projects (wrongly mentioned as 11 projects) in the chart scanned as Annexure A at page 57 of o....

That the direction of PCIT to examine the taxability of transferring of rights in the land at Ranga Reddy district Telangana for Rs. 88.50 crores during the year in lieu of gross revenue from the project is not valid, as the same represents closing balance of inventory in respect of area under development agreement forming part of audited balance sheet under note 10 Other Assets and the appellant has already offered to tax the corresponding revenue in relation to such inventory of Rs. 88.50 cores in the subsequent years in terms of the development agreement and accordingly, the assessment order cannot be regarded as erroneous or prejudicial to interest of revenue. 8. That the direction by PCIT to verify and examine the issue of correctness of the exceptional gains of Rs. 261.80 crores and exceptional loss of Rs. 495.10 crores is not justified as the assessee has duly offered for taxation Rs. 261.80 Crores and out of exceptional loss of Rs. 495.10 Crores, the assessee has already disallowed Rs. 194.40 Crore on account of provision for loans (including intere....

Regarding issue related to land parcel at Shivaji Marg, New Delhi which has been sold by the company SPV for 3700 crores, the tax implication of this transaction in view of the fact that the registration of the property was got done at a higher value, is set aside for verification and enquiry by the AO." 6. Against such order passed u/s 263 giving these directions, the assessee is in appeal before the Tribunal by taking grounds of appeal as reproduced herein above. 7. With these facts, the appeal of the assessee is decided as under:- 8. Grounds Nos.1, 2 & 11 of the appeal are in respect to the legality of order passed u/s 263 of the Act as according to assessee, the assessment order was neither erroneous nor pre-judicial to the interest of revenue. 8.1. Further the assessee has separately challenged the order u/s 263 on merits wherein directions given by Ld. PCIT are agitated in Ground No.3 to 10 therefore, we first adjudicated these grounds of appeal before dwelling upon legal issues taken by the assessee in Ground Nos. 1, 2 & 11. 8.2.

....of its treatment in books. Any disputed amount against this category may also be brought to tax. 4. The nomenclatures like 'PL not issued', or 'Not Sold' are alien to the Percentage of Completion Method, since the entire project has been completed. 5. Since the basic principle of Income Tax Law is to recognise the Real Income and not the Notional Income, the revenue received for the leftover area of the entire project has to be computed in accordance with actual receipts of assessee against this leftover area. 6. The deemed rent on the unsold inventory of assessee would be brought to tax as per the provisions of the Income Tax Act as Completion Certificate has already been received. 7. As and when the Unsold Area is actually sold by assessee, the gross receipts as such will be brought to tax as the cost for the same would have been already considered. Here it may be clarified that 'actually sold would include any type of receipts in cash or kind by whatever name called. The above 1 to 7 steps for the recognition of revenue in the case of assessee are based on principles of recognition of Revenue as per POCM and it taxes the Real Income only. Also, ther....

....PCIT fell into grave error in recommending personal and subjective criteria for recognition revenue under POCM which are wholly contrary to IndAS. In fact, the Ind AS are drafted by expert National Advisory Committee on Accounting Standards constituted by Central Government under supervision of Accounting Standards Board (ICAI), the PCIT was not justified in tinkering with the method. It is relevant to state that the authority of accounting standards having been approved and accepted by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of CIT v. Virtual Soft Systems Ltd. [2018] 404 ITR 409 (SC), the direction of PCIT is perverse and unjustified. In fact, Apex Court in the case of Bilahari Investment 299 ITR 1 has duly examined the applicability of POCM and CCM method and confirmed both the methods. Even otherwise, the whole exercise is revenue neutral as the direction of PCIT would merely result in preponement of the revenue from incomplete project which eventually has been recognized in subsequent years. Further, the tax rate remaining the same, no prejudice is caused to the interest of the revenue and as such the exercise of power u/s 263 is unwarranted and without any basis. Furth....

....e assessee which are available at pages 1038 to 1060 of the Paper Book. In the instant case, the issue of Revenue recognition by following POCM as against CCM adopted, has already been challenged before the Ld. CIT(A) and therefore, it cannot be said that this issue has not been considered/examined. On the other hand, the AO has applied his mind and reaches to the conclusion therefore, the scope of Ld. PCIT u/s 263 for making further enquiries is nothing but change of opinion which is not permissible u/s 263 of the Act. The Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of PCIT vs Sriji Prints (2021) 130 taxmann.com 294 (SC) has held that once the AO has taken a plausible view, the same cannot be considered as erroneous and pre-judicial to the interest of the Revenue and therefore, the Hon'ble Supreme Court has dismissed the SLP filed by the Revenue against the order of Hon'ble Gujarat High Court filed by the Revenue. 15.1. It is further seen that this issue has been decided by the Co-ordinate Bench in the case of group company namely, DLF Assets Ltd. in ITA No.2355/Del/2024 wherein vide order dated 18.09.2024, the Co-ordinate Bench in para 4 & 5 of the order has held that the revisional juris....

Further, he also observed that the entire exercise of this addition made by the AO in the assessment proceedings is purely academic in nature as it is revenue neutral in view of the fact that....

.... PCIT in order to invoke his revision jurisdiction should cumulatively satisfy the twin conditions i.e. (i) that is the order of the AO must be erroneous and (ii) order of the AO must be prejudicial to the interest of revenue. Even if one condition is absent, revision proceedings u/s 263 of the Act cannot be invoked by the ld PCIT. Reliance in this regard is placed on the decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Malabar Industrial Company Ltd reported in 243 ITR 83 (SC). Further, we find that the basis of shift in the method of recognition of revenue from POCM to CCM has already been examined in detail by the NFAC and accepted by the NFAC to be in order. Hence, the order of the assessment got merged with the order of NFAC. This issue has been already decided by NFAC. Hence, in view of clause (C ) of Explanation to Section 263(1) of the Act, the ld PCIT could not have assumed revision jurisdiction at all on this issue. Hence, the revision jurisdiction invoked by the ld PCIT u/s 263 of the Act on this issue is bad in law for more than one reason and accordingly deserves to be quashed and is hereby quashed." 16.

PCIT has rightly held the order as erroneous and pre- judicial to the interest of the Revenue as the AO has not make any disallowance u/s 36(1)(iii) of the Act. Therefore, he prayed for confirmation of order of Ld. PCIT on this issue. 20. We have heard the rival submissions and perused the material available on record. At the outset from the records, it is seen that the AO has made specific queries with respect to the interest and financial expenses claimed by the assessee during the course of assessment proceedings wherein the AO has made the following queries to the assessee:- 6. "Query No.6 "As per notes to the financial statement for the period ended on 31.03.2019, it is noticed that the borrowing cost were not capitalized during the year under consideration. However, the same is debited to profit & loss account. Show cause why the borrowing cost may not be capitalized in view of proviso to section 36(I)(iii) of Income Tax Act, 1961?" 21.

Ground No.5 of the assessee is related to the directions of Ld. PCIT to examine and analyze the issue related to income from house property and notional rental income on unsold stock. 24.

The details of the same were submitted before the AO during the course of assessment proceedings. Besides this, the assessee has declared income of INR 18,99,02,421/- as notional rent on the vacant properties held as stock-in-trade. The notional rent was determined on the basis of valuation report of independent valuer and all these facts were submitted before Ld.

PCIT during the course of revisional proceedings has brought these facts to the notice of Ld. PCIT however, Ld. PCIT merely for the verification of these facts has hold the order as erroneous and pre-judicial to the interest of the Revenue. It is settled law that merely for verification purposes, the order cannot be held as erroneous and pre-judicial to the interest of the Revenue. Ld.PCIT has failed to point out which condition of Explanation 2 of section 263 is applicable on this issue. Looking to these facts, in our considered opinion, the order of Ld. PCIT u/s 263 of the Act on this score holds no water and thus is quashed. Ground No.6 raised by the assessee is accordingly, allowed. 33.

"Observation 5: Regarding transferring of rights in the land at Ranga Reddy district Telangana for Rs. 88.50 crores during the year in lieu of gross revenue from the project please show cause as to why the profit from this be not brought to tax and the order of AO be not considered erroneous and prejudicial to this extent, as it was not examined at all.

....m your honor. In view of the above submissions, it is submitted that the Assessee has already offered to tax the revenue from the aforesaid transaction in terms of the development agreement and accordingly, the assessment order cannot be regarded as erroneous or prejudicial to interest of revenue." 37. From the above reply of the assessee, it is clear that the assessee has duly offered the income against such cost incurred on the project at Ranga District, Telangana in the year when the income was accrued and therefore, the assessment order was neither erroneous nor pre-judicial to the interest of the Revenue and accordingly, we quash the order of Ld. PCIT passed u/s 263 of the Act on this issue wherein Ld. PCIT has merely direct the AO for making verification of the income offered without in any manner pointing out any error or loss of Revenue. Ground No.7 raised by the assessee is accordingly, allowed. 38. Ground No.8 raised by the assessee is with regard to the verification of correctness of exceptional gain of INR 261.80 crores and exceptional loss of INR 495.1 crores. 39.

He thus prayed for confirmation of the order of Ld. PCIT. 41. We have heard the rival contentions and perused the material available on record. From the reply dated 28.03.2024 filed before the Ld.PCIT, it is clear that total exceptional gain of INR 261.80 crores was offered for tax during the year under appeal and out of exceptional loss of INR 495.1 crores, the assessee has already offered INR 394.30 crores by including the same in the total income which is evident from the computation and left over was claimed as exceptional loss. It is also relevant to state that the AO has made specific query in this regard and after considering the submissions made by the assessee on this issue has accepted the claim of the assessee. The Ld. PCIT has not found any error either in the submissions made by the assessee before the AO or before Ld. PCIT himself nor brought any instance of incorrect cl....

In revisional proceedings, the assessee has demonstrated that all the creditors were genuine creditors and no error was found by Ld. PCIT in the same, who simply direct the AO for making further verification which is beyond the scope of section 263 of the Act. As observed above, the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of PCIT vs Shreeji Paints P.Ltd. (supra) has held that once the AO has made inquiry in details and accepted the genuineness of loans received by the assessee, such view of AO was a plausible view and same cannot be considered erroneous or pre-judicial to the interest of the Revenue and therefore, the Hon'ble Supreme Court dismissed the SLP of the Revenue and confirmed the order of Hon'ble Gujarat High Court reported in 130 taxmann.com 293 (Gujarat). In view of the above facts and by respectfully following the judgement of Hon'ble Supreme Court, we find no error in the order of AO and therefore, the order of Ld. PCIT passed u/s 263 on this issue is hereby quashed. Hence, Ground No.9 raised by the assessee is allowed. 46. Ground No.10 raised by the assessee is with re....

Now we take up the legal grounds of appeal No.1,2 and 11 where the assessee has challenged the order of Ld. PCIT passed u/s 263 of the Act as the twin conditions of section 263 are not satisfied. 51. In this regard, it is submitted by the Ld.AR for the assessee that for invoking the provision of section 263 of the Act, Ld. PCIT first has to record the satisfaction that the order is pre-judicial to the interest of the Revenue and erroneous. The twin conditions as enumerated in section 263 has to be satisfied together before invoking the provision of section 263 of the Act. As per Ld.AR, Ld.

If an Income-tax Officer acting in accordance with law makes a certain assessment, the same cannot be branded as "erroneous" by the Commissioner simply because, according to him, the order should have been written differently or more elaborately. The Section does not visualize the substitution of the judgment of the Commissioner for that of the Income-tax Officer, who passed the order unless the decision is not in accordance with law. Further, any and every erroneous order cannot be the subject matter of revision because the second requirement also must be fulfilled. There must be material on record to show that tax which was lawfully leviable has not been imposed as held in Gabriel India Ltd.(supra).

Cases may be visualized where the Income-tax Officer while making an assessment examines the accounts, makes enquiries, applies his mind to the facts and circumstances of the case and determines the income either by accepting the accounts or by making some estimate himself. The Commissioner, on perusal of the records, may be of the opinion that the estimate made by the officer concerned was on the lower side and left to the commissioner he would have estimated the income at a figure higher than the one determined by the Income-tax Officer. That would not vest the Commissioner with power to re-examine the accounts and determine the income himself at a higher figure.

CIT reported in 81 Taxmann.com 420 has observed that if a query is raised during the assessment proceedings which was responded to by the assessee, the mere fact that the query was not dealt with in the assessment order then it would not lead to a conclusion that no mind has been applied to it and the Assessing Officer is not expected to raise more queries, if he was satisfied about the admissibility of claim on the basis of the material and the details supplied. 61.
