The Tribunal set aside the order of the CIT(A) and restored the issues to the file of the CIT(A) for adjudication on merits. The assessee was granted another opportunity to be heard.

The Tribunal held that advancing loans and advances, including corpus funds, to other registered charitable institutions with similar objects is permissible and not hit by the relevant provisions of the Act. The CIT(A)'s order was found to be correct.
The Tribunal held that the assessee was not interested in pursuing the appeal. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed in limine.
The Tribunal held that the expenses incurred by the assessee were wholly and exclusively for the purpose of earning income and were therefore admissible under Section 57(iii). The Assessing Officer was directed to allow legal expenses with valid bills and verify travel expenses.
The Tribunal noted that the CIT(A) had not adjudicated the grounds on merits and that the legal issue relied upon was reversed by the Supreme Court. Therefore, the matter was restored to the CIT(A) for adjudication on merits.
The Tribunal held that the transfer from depreciation reserve was rightly disallowed as it was effectively an adjustment to earlier years' profits and hit by the proviso to Explanation 1(i) of Section 115JB(2). However, the provision for FBT was held to be an allowable deduction as per CBDT Circular No. 8/2005.
The Tribunal condoned the delay in filing the appeal due to bonafide reasons. It found that the facts and circumstances required for deciding the issue were not properly appreciated and remitted the issues back to the AO for a fresh examination.
The Tribunal held that the payment was for sales commission for procuring orders, not for managerial or technical services. Therefore, the disallowance made by the Assessing Officer was not justified.
The Tribunal held that the higher interest paid to relatives was not justified given the lower rate paid to third parties, and thus the disallowance by the lower authority was confirmed. However, the penalty for share transaction omission was deleted, considering it a bonafide belief of exemption and an inadvertent omission. Penalties for unaccounted stock were also deleted as the income was disclosed in returns filed within the prescribed time.
The Tribunal held that both issues required re-examination. The disallowance of the discount was to be re-examined to verify if the discount was actually given and if it was allowable. The disallowance under Section 40(a)(ia) was to be re-examined to verify if the recipient had paid taxes.
The Tribunal found that while the identity of alleged creditors might have been established, their capacity to advance money and the genuineness of the transactions were not proven. The assessee's inconsistent stands regarding the source of funds further weakened their case.

The Tribunal held that interest earned on bank deposits, even if made for opening letters of credit for business purposes, is not income 'derived from' the industrial undertaking. Therefore, it cannot be considered for deduction under Section 10AA.
The Tribunal held that the AO had not examined all documentary evidence regarding the gift and that the partnership deed was not available to determine the nature of the investment. Both issues were remitted back to the AO for fresh examination.
The Tribunal upheld the deletion of disallowances for export commission paid to non-residents for services rendered outside India and for 'off-the-shelf' software licenses. However, it partly allowed the assessee's appeal regarding Section 14A disallowance, directing a 2% disallowance of dividend income.

The Tribunal held that the assessee complied with the conditions of Section 54 if the construction was completed within 3 years of the transfer. The repayment of a housing loan for construction was considered as investment. The matter was remitted to the AO for verification of payment dates and completion of construction.
The Tribunal held that Section 2(22)(e) is applicable even if the recipient is not a direct shareholder, as long as it is a 'concern' in which a shareholder with substantial interest in the lending company also has a substantial interest. The loan received by the assessee company was therefore treated as deemed dividend.
The Tribunal found that the lower authorities had not properly examined the commercial expediency and diversion of funds. Therefore, both issues were remitted back to the Assessing Officer for fresh examination.
