AI SummaryAllowed

What did the Tribunal hold?

The Tribunal held that the assessee had the option to choose a valuation method under Rule 11UA and had substantiated its valuation using the market/stamp duty value of land. The AO could not impose his own valuation method without disproving the assessee's claim. Therefore, the addition made by the AO was deleted.

What were the facts?

The assessee company issued shares at a premium, valuing its land at market value (Rs. 2,45,50,000) instead of book value (Rs. 66,87,650) for calculating the fair market value (FMV) of shares. The Assessing Officer (AO) made an addition of Rs. 2,34,04,480 under Section 56(2)(viib) for the difference between the FMV and issue price, which was upheld by the CIT(A).

What were the issues?

Whether the AO was justified in rejecting the assessee's chosen method of valuing shares under Rule 11UA by substituting the market value of land with its book value, leading to an addition under Section 56(2)(viib).

Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?

Section 147,Section 144,Section 56(2)(viib)
