AI SummaryAllowed

What did the Tribunal hold?

The tribunal held that the second reopening of assessment was bad in law as it was based on a change of opinion and lacked tangible material. Furthermore, the addition of the entire bank deposits without considering the nature of transactions and without applying the peak credit principle was unsustainable.

What were the facts?

The assessee, an individual, did not file her return of income for AY 2014-15. A notice u/s 148 was issued, and a return was filed. Subsequently, a second notice u/s 148 was issued to verify bank credits, leading to an ex-parte reassessment order adding Rs. 8,36,02,744/- as unexplained under section 69A.

What were the issues?

Validity of second reopening under section 147/148; correctness of addition made under section 69A for unexplained bank deposits.

Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?

Section 147,Section 143(3),Section 144B,Section 148,Section 69A,Section 151,Section 250
