Case Laws / Head Notes / Paras

Taxpayer himself had declared income under normal tax regime as well as under final tax regime which stood subjected to withholding provisions of 153(1)(a) of ITO 2001---Assessing authority without any basis presumed that all sales were made to the “prescribed person” as defined in S. 153(7) of ITO 2001---Assessing authority had not given even a single instance of any sale out of sales subject to normal tax regime to draw any adverse inference with regard to the declaration made by the taxpayer---Assessing authority had failed to point out any of the customers of the taxpayer who was found to be the “prescribed person” as per S.153(7) of ITO 2001---Invoking the provisions of S.122(5) without any material “definite information” was not justified.
