ITAT Rules on Unexplained Income, Property Valuation, and Family-Owned Jewellery Cases
Three recent Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) rulings addressed disputes over unexplained income and asset ownership. In Bangalore, a landowner proved his cash deposits were from agricultural sales, winning his case. In Delhi, a property buyer who paid below market value and filed no return was relieved of a penalty after paying due tax. In Kolkata, ITAT ruled that jewellery found in family lockers during a tax search does not automatically belong to the searched individual, emphasizing ownership documentation and family possession.
