Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, “A”
Before: SHRI S.S.GODARA & SHRI INTURI RAMA RAO
ORDER
Per S.S.Godara, JM:
This Revenue’s appeal for Assessment Year 2010-11 is directed against the Commissioner of Income Tax(Appeal)-6, Pune’s in case no.PN/CIT(A)-6/10022/2018-19 dated 27.08.2020, in proceedings u/s.271(1)(c) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 [in short “the Act”]. Heard both the parties. Case file perused.
It emerges at the outset that the relevant facts regarding correctness of the impugned penalty in issue of Rs.4,08,420/- pertaining to quantum disallowance(s) of bogus purchases to the tune of Rs.12,01,591/- are in a very narrow compass. The Assessing
A.Y. 2010-11 (R) Shri Hanuman Sahebrao Pansare Officer’s assessment order dated 03.12.2012 states that although the assessee had shown purchases M/s.Vidhi and Vrushti Trade Private Limited and supported the same by way of purchase bills, but he could not produce the other supportive material in the nature of delivery challans, weighing slips and transportation bills. Rather the department had admittedly come across sufficient material that the assessee’s above stated supplier had defaulted in paying VAT bills as per sales tax department’s intimation. This resulted in the impugned bogus purchase disallowance of Rs.12,01,591/- which ultimately stood restricted @10% of the gross profit element in assessee’s quantum appeal decided on 09.07.2019 in this tribunal.
We now advert to the impugned penalty proceedings wherein both the learned lower authorities hold the assessee to have furnished inaccurate particulars of income. Mr.Murkund could hardly dispute that what remains before us is sec 271(1)(c) penalty regarding only the gross profit estimation disallowance than the entire bogus purchases as per the tribunal’s order (supra).
Faced with this situation, we find merit in assessee’s vehement arguments that such a penalty is not sustainable in an instance involving gross profit estimation. The same is directed to be deleted therefore.
A.Y. 2010-11 (R) Shri Hanuman Sahebrao Pansare
This assessee’s appeal is allowed.
