What did the Tribunal hold?

The Tribunal held that the CIT(A)'s quashing of the assessment due to procedural irregularity in not disposing of objections to reopening was an error that should be rectified by restoring the issue to the AO. Regarding merits, the Tribunal found that the issue of bogus purchases needed further verification.

What were the facts?

The Revenue appealed against the CIT(A)'s order which deleted additions made by the AO. The AO had treated purchases from M/s. Parth International as bogus based on statements from an entry operator. The CIT(A) had quashed the assessment for procedural irregularities and also deleted additions on merits.

What were the issues?

Whether the assessment order was sustainable when objections to reopening were not disposed of separately, and whether the assessee had discharged the onus to prove the genuineness of purchases from an entry operator.

Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?

Section 148,Section 133(6)
