The Tribunal condoned the delay, citing the principle that substantial justice should be preferred over technical considerations. The Tribunal found that the CIT(A) had passed an ex-parte order without providing the assessee with an adequate opportunity of being heard, violating the principles of natural justice.
The Tribunal found that the CIT(A) dismissed the appeal ex-parte without considering the assessee's grounds of appeal on merits. Principles of natural justice require providing another opportunity for the assessee to present their case.

The Tribunal found that the AO and DRP failed to controvert the genuineness of separate contracts executed by the assessee with its clients and did not establish how the assessee used its subsidiary's premises. Therefore, the AO/DRP were not justified in holding that the assessee had a PE in India.

The Tribunal held that while the Assessing Officer's mandate was to verify a specific deposit, the scrutiny was complete. It observed that while some amounts were transferred via banking channels from the assessee's husband, there was insufficient evidence for cash deposits, sustaining additions to a certain extent.
The Tribunal held that the AO's addition was based on borrowed satisfaction and generalizations without specific evidence against the assessee. The assessee was denied the opportunity to cross-examine witnesses whose statements were used against her, rendering the assessment order unsustainable.
The Tribunal held that the adjustment of depreciation difference to profits eligible for exemption under Section 10A does not result in an addition to total income. Regarding transfer pricing, the Tribunal found that an adjustment is warranted for the benefit derived by the Associated Enterprise from personnel deployment, but the benchmarking done by the TPO was incorrect. The Tribunal revised the transfer pricing adjustment.
The Tribunal found that neither the AO nor the CIT(A) had examined the facts of the case properly. Therefore, the appeal was restored to the AO for a fresh assessment after considering the assessee's submissions.
The Tribunal held that the assessee, being a cooperative society, is eligible for deduction under Section 80P(2)(d) on interest income earned from investments in other cooperative societies or cooperative banks. The reliance on the Supreme Court decision in Totgars Cooperative Sales Society Ltd. was deemed distinguishable.
The Tribunal held that the assessee, a cooperative society, is eligible for deduction under Section 80P(2)(d) on interest income earned from investments in other cooperative societies or cooperative banks. The Supreme Court's decision in Totgar's Co-operative Sales Society Ltd. was distinguished as not being applicable to the present issue.
The Tribunal held that the 'Other Method' under Rule 10AB is the Most Appropriate Method (MAM) due to the lack of reliable comparables for unique intangibles. The Tribunal directed the TPO to adopt the 'Other Method' for benchmarking royalty.
The Tribunal deleted the disallowance under Section 14A, finding it unwarranted as the assessee earned no exempt income. It also deleted the addition to book profits related to Section 14A disallowance. For the Section 35(2AB) disallowance, the Tribunal deleted the addition to book profits, stating that the disallowance did not fall under permissible additions for book profit computation.
The tribunal held that disallowance under Section 14A should be computed considering only investments yielding exempt income and that the assessee had sufficient interest-free funds. It also held that Section 40(a)(ia) is not applicable for lower TDS deduction and deleted the transfer pricing adjustment for ERP costs, following earlier precedents.
The Tribunal held that interest income earned by a co-operative society from its investments with any other co-operative society is eligible for deduction under Section 80P(2)(d). A co-operative bank, being a co-operative society, falls within this scope.
The Tribunal held that the Assessing Officer's satisfaction for initiating penalty proceedings was vague and mechanical, failing to specify whether the penalty was for concealment of income or furnishing inaccurate particulars. Furthermore, penalties were levied on additions that were deleted or made on an ad-hoc basis, rendering them unsustainable.

Furthermore, penalties were levied on additions that were deleted or made on an ad-hoc basis, rendering them unsustainable.
The Tribunal held that the AO could not invoke Section 154 (rectification) when the issue was debatable or required investigation of fresh facts. The Tribunal found no mistake apparent from the record in the original assessment order allowing the deduction.
The Tribunal held that the addition for commission income of Rs. 9 lakhs was not justified as it was already offered to tax and directed its deletion. For other incomes, while additions under Section 68 were sustained, no additional tax liability arose as they were already offered to tax.
The Tribunal upheld the CIT(A)'s decision, following a coordinate bench ruling in the assessee's own case. It was held that the payee had disclosed the income in its Indian tax return and paid the due taxes, thus the assessee was not deemed an assessee in default.

The Tribunal upheld the CIT(A)'s decision, finding no infirmity in the assessment of money received on liquidation as capital gain under Section 46(2). The assessee's grounds of appeal were dismissed.

The Tribunal held that the difference between the DVO's valuation and the sale agreement value was 4.32%, which is less than the 5% or 10% threshold mentioned in the third proviso of Section 50C(1). Therefore, no addition was justified.
The Tribunal held that the AO had made proper inquiries and taken possible views on both the share capital issue and the Section 14A disallowance. The AO's acceptance of the assessee's contentions, supported by High Court decisions, meant the assessment order was not erroneous or prejudicial to revenue.
