SHRIMAD DAYANAND SHIKSHA SAMITI,BHILWARA vs. CIT(E), JAIPUR
Facts
The appellant society's applications for registration under Section 12AB and approval under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act were rejected by the learned CIT(E). This was the second round of litigation, with previous appeals being restored by the ITAT for fresh examination. The CIT(E) rejected the applications again citing non-genuineness of activities and non-registration under the Rajasthan Public Trust Act.
Held
The Tribunal noted that the appellant society failed to provide the requisite details and clarifications despite multiple opportunities. The CIT(E) was justified in concluding that the genuineness of the activities could not be ascertained. However, considering the peculiar facts, the Tribunal allowed the restoration of the matters to the CIT(E) for a fresh decision.
Key Issues
Whether the CIT(E) rightly rejected the applications for registration and approval due to non-compliance by the applicant society, and if restoration of the matter is warranted.
