What did the Tribunal hold?

The Tribunal upheld the CIT(A)'s decision, noting that no specific defects were found in the assessee's claim and that the deduction had been consistently allowed in previous assessment years, including re-assessments, without adverse findings. The Tribunal found no justification to reverse the CIT(A)'s order, which had rightly applied the doctrine of consistency principles.

A search and seizure operation was conducted on the assessee's premises. For AY 2015-16, the assessee claimed a deduction of Rs. 2,15,44,476/- under Section 80IC in their 'Nil' income return. The Assessing Officer rejected this deduction, but the CIT(A) subsequently reversed the AO's order, allowing the deduction based on the availability of audit reports, financial statements, and past consistent assessments.

What were the issues?

Whether the deduction claimed by the assessee under Section 80IC for AY 2015-16 was allowable, considering prior consistent assessments and the absence of specific defects in the claim.

Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?

Section 143(3),Section 132,Section 80IC,Section 148
