The High Court observed that there was an abnormal delay by the respondent-Revenue in deciding the rectification application filed by the petitioner. The application sought to rectify the amount of refund determined by the respondent through its intimation dated 08.08.2005. Consequently, the Court disposed of the petition with a direction to the respondent-authority to take a final decision on the aforesaid application dated 12.05.2006 within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of the order. This decision was to be made after granting an opportunity of personal hearing to the petitioner and permitting the petitioner to produce any supporting evidence.

Additionally, the revenue authorities stated that the impugned penalty orders under Sections 271(1)(c), 271(1)(b), and 271F, and the demand notices under Section 156, would also be treated as non-est.

The petitioner's counsel submitted that this action rendered the writ petition infructuous. The Court accepted this submission.

The High Court held that the reassessment notices issued under Section 148 of the Income Tax Act, 1961, for Assessment Year 2016-17, were time-barred. This decision was based on the Supreme Court's ruling in Union of India Vs. Rajeev Bansal, which clarified that reassessment notices must be issued within the surviving time limit under the Income Tax Act read with TOLA. The Court noted that the Supreme Court in Rajeev Bansal's case had held that notices issued beyond the surviving period are liable to be set aside. Crucially, the respondent-Income Tax Department itself conceded that the impugned notices were issued beyond the permissible time limit. Therefore, the notices dated 30.06.2021 under Section 148, 31.05.2022 under Section 148A(b), the order dated 29.07.2022 under Section 148A(d), and the consequential notice dated 30.07.2022 under Section 148 were set aside. The writ petition was allowed.

The Tribunal held that the mere generation of surplus income from educational activities does not automatically disentitle a trust from its registration under Section 12AA, especially when the genuineness of the activities and their alignment with the trust's objects were not doubted.
The High Court has not decided any specific issues on merits in this particular order. Instead, it has stated that the decision for this appeal will be based on a detailed order passed on the same date in a related case, ITA-517-2008. The court has also disposed of any pending applications. No specific findings, reasoning, or ratio decidendi are provided in this judgment concerning the appeal itself. The operative directions are to follow the decision in the related case and dispose of applications.
The High Court of Punjab and Haryana at Chandigarh held that the order for ITA-323-2019 would be the same as the detailed order passed in ITA-517-2008. The judgment does not provide the specific findings, reasoning, or ratio decidendi for ITA-323-2019 itself, as it defers to the decision in the connected case. Consequently, no operative directions or relief granted are specified for this particular appeal, nor are any issues expressly left undecided.
