ITAT Grants Relief in Multiple Cases Involving Unexplained Income and Tax Assessments
Several recent Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) rulings have provided relief to taxpayers facing tax additions on unexplained cash, jewellery, and deposits. Cases include a Mumbai woman who recovered seized gold and silver by proving inheritance and gifts, a businesswoman who justified cash payments towards credit card bills, and a landlord who deposited rental income in cash during demonetisation. Additionally, ITAT invalidated a reassessment notice issued to a deceased taxpayer. These decisions emphasize the importance of evidence and adherence to procedural limits in tax assessments.
