What did the Tribunal hold?

The Tribunal held that the CBDT Notification dated 24.05.2023, which raised the exemption limit for leave encashment to Rs. 25 lakhs for non-government employees with retrospective effect, should be applied to the assessee's case. Consequently, the assessment order and the CIT(A)'s impugned order were set aside.

What were the facts?

The assessee, a retired employee, received Rs. 15,16,271 as leave encashment. CPC, Bengaluru, allowed an exemption of only Rs. 3,00,000 under Section 10(10AA)(2) of the Act, creating a demand for the balance amount. The assessee challenged this intimation before the CIT(A), who upheld the intimation.

What were the issues?

Whether the enhanced exemption limit for leave encashment for non-government employees, as per CBDT Notification dated 24.05.2023, applies retrospectively to the assessee's case, allowing a higher exemption than initially granted.

Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?

Section 143(1),Section 10(10AA)(2)
