Manoj Kumar, Sr. DR Date of Hearing: 21.07.2026 Date of Pronouncement: 21.07.2026 ORDER This assessee’s appeal for Assessment Year 2017-18 arises against the Commissioner of Income Tax(Appeals)/National Faceless Appeal Centre (for short, ‘CIT(A)/NFAC’), Delhi’s DIN & order No. ITBA/NFAC/S/250/2025-26/1085096022(1), dated 23.01.2026, involving proceedings u/s 270A of the Income Tax Act, 1961; hereinafter referred to as, “the Act”.
Heard both the parties at length. Case file perused.
It emerges at the outset that we hardly need to delve with the relevant factual matrix herein at length so far as the
2 assessee’s sole substantive ground canvassed in the instant appeal directed against both the learned lower authorities’ respective findings levying the section 270A “under reporting” penalty of Rs. 1,35,59,985/- is concerned.
This is for the precises reasons that we are informed by both the parties that this tribunal’s “quantum” order passed in the assessee’s appeal ITA No. 4670/Del/2025 dated 15.12.2025 (pages 16 to 18 of the paperbook) has restored the matter back to the learned CIT(A) for his afresh appropriate adjudication. We are of the considered view in this factual backdrop that the assessee’s instant section 270A penalty appeal also deserves to follow the same being consequential in nature. Ordered accordingly.
All other remaining issues between the parties are kept open at this stage.
This assessee’s appeal is allowed for statistical purposes.
Order pronounced in the open court on 21.07.2026.
