Facts
The assessee challenged an order by the CIT(A) which confirmed additions made by the AO. The additions arose from a rectification order under Section 154, where income from house property and other sources was reclassified under business income. The assessee argued this led to double taxation.
Held
The Tribunal noted that the assessee claimed income was taxed twice. The assessee demonstrated that income from property and other sources was already offered, and reclassifying it under business income was incorrect. The Tribunal found merit in the assessee's argument.
Key Issues
Whether reclassifying income from house property and other sources under business income, leading to double taxation, is valid under Section 154 of the Income Tax Act.
