URMILA RAJENDRA MUNDRA,AJMER vs. INCOME TAX OFFICER, WARD-2(2), AJMER, AJMER
What did the Tribunal hold?
The Tribunal held that the penalty was wrongly levied as the assessee had provided supporting documents for the claim, and the AO's assertion of no evidence was incorrect. The penalty was set aside based on similar High Court decisions.
What were the facts?
The assessee claimed capitalized interest as cost of improvement for calculating capital gains. This claim was disallowed by the Assessing Officer (AO) for lack of supporting documents. Consequently, penalty proceedings under Section 270A were initiated.
What were the issues?
Whether penalty under Section 270A is leviable when the assessee has provided supporting documents for a disallowed claim, and if the AO's failure to consider such evidence warrants setting aside the penalty.
Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?
