• Section 144 r.w. Section 145(3): ITAT JAIPUR on Jun 19, 2020 held that Even if the books f ‎accounts rejected by invoking provisions of Section 145(3) due doubt on genuineness of the ‎purchases, the A.O. is bound to frame the assessment on best assessment as per provisions of ‎Section 144 r.w. Section 145(3). Therefore, after rejection of books of account, the A.O. is ‎required to estimate the income of the assessee on some reasonable and proper basis. Once the ‎past year results have attained finality and not in dispute, the same can form the basis for ‎estimating the GP rate for the current year. KEDIA EXPORTS PVT. LTD. & ANR. vs. ‎ACIT. AY 2009-10, 2012-13, 2013-14 & 2014-15 Decision in favour of Assessee

• If the Notice u/s 143(2) issued by Income tax Officer was having no Jurisdiction at the ‎time of issue of the notice then this is not a valid notice as it suffers from an inherent ‎lacuna affecting his / its jurisdiction. It is not a curable defect u/s 292BB. The consequent ‎order passed u/s 143(3) dated 29.12.2017 was legally unsustainable and therefore is null ‎in the eyes of law and therefore quashed. ITO vs Mr.P N Krishnamurthy ITAT ‎Bangalore on 27 April, 2020‎.

• Supreme Court on 24.4.2020 held that no addition u/s 68 can be allowed when the CIT ‎Appeal deleted the penalty on the same credit entry on the ground that the assessee establish ‎the credentials. High Court also held that when the books of accounts rejected for GP ‎addition purpose, but then, if those books of accounts did disclose certain other assets, ‎which are wrongly shown to be liabilities, and for acquisition of which the assessee did ‎not show the source, it cannot be said that the Assessing Officer was not entitled to use ‎the books of accounts for this purpose.‎ Basir Ahmed Sisodiya Vs. ITO

• It is well settled that in case the books of accounts are rejected the income of the business in which the Assessee was engaged can be determined by estimating the profit rate considering past history.
