INCOME TAX OFFICER, THANE vs. TUFAIL AHMED BAKHSHULLAH SIDDIQUI, THANE
Facts
The Revenue appealed against the CIT(A)'s decision to restrict the disallowance of purchases from non-existent vendors to 12%. The assessee filed a cross-objection challenging the reopening of assessment and the 12% profit estimation.
Held
The Tribunal held that while the supplier's genuineness was doubtful, the corresponding sales were accepted. Therefore, the addition should be restricted to the profit element, and the 12% estimation by the CIT(A) was on the higher side.
Key Issues
Whether the entire purchases from a non-existent vendor are to be disallowed, or only the profit element, when corresponding sales are accepted. Also, the validity of reopening the assessment.
