SHRI PARASRAM COMMODITIES PVT LTD.,DELHI vs. DCIT, CIRCLE-23(1), DELHI
What did the Tribunal hold?
The Tribunal held that when a case is reopened on specific reasons, the Assessing Officer cannot make additions on entirely different grounds. Since the addition was made on the issue of sham share transactions, which was not the basis for reopening, the reassessment was held to be invalid. The Tribunal allowed the appeal based on this legal ground.
What were the facts?
The assessee's case was reopened under section 148 based on information that Shri Ravinder Kumar Aggarwal, who received ₹1 crore from the assessee, could not substantiate the source of funds for his property purchase. However, the Assessing Officer made an addition of ₹66,77,951 on account of accommodation entry related to sham share transactions instead of the alleged loan to Shri Aggarwal.
What were the issues?
Whether the reassessment proceedings are valid when the addition made by the AO is on grounds different from the reasons recorded for reopening the assessment.
