AI SummaryAllowed

What did the Tribunal hold?

The ITAT held that the CIT(A) wrongly applied Section 249(4)(b) because the assessee, being an agriculturist with no taxable income, was not liable to pay advance tax. The tribunal relied on the decision in Vikas Hooda vs. ITO.

What were the issues?

Whether the appeal could be admitted under Section 249(4)(b) when the assessee had no taxable income and hence no advance tax was payable.

Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?

Section 144,Section 249(4)(b),Section 147,Section 69
