SIR RATAN TATA TRUST,MUMBAI vs. CIT (EXEMPTION), MUMBAI
What did the Tribunal hold?
The Tribunal held that the CIT(E) erred in exercising revisional jurisdiction as the Assessing Officer had indeed made necessary inquiries regarding the nature of investments. The Tribunal relied on its previous decisions for identical facts in preceding assessment years.
What were the facts?
The CIT(E) invoked revisional jurisdiction under Section 263 of the IT Act, stating the AO failed to conduct detailed inquiries regarding the assessee's investments in shares. This action was taken for AY 2016-17, and the assessee argued that similar revision orders for preceding AYs were quashed by the Tribunal.
What were the issues?
Whether the CIT(E) correctly invoked Section 263 powers when the AO had already examined the assessee's share investments in light of Sections 11(5) and 13(1)(d).
Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?
