Challenge to order of Income Tax Appellate Tribunal dated 15th January, 2014 in Income Tax Appeal No.5408/Mum/2012 for the assessment year 2009-2010. Determination of substantial questions of law, specifically regarding the deletion of disallowance made under section 14A of the Income Tax Act, 1961 read with Rule 8D of the Income Tax Rules. The High Court of Bombay heard an Appeal against the order of the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal dated 15th January, 2014, pertaining to Income Tax Appeal No.5408/Mum/2012 for the assessment year 2009-2010. The Court noted that out of the two questions considered substantial, one question was previously addressed in a different Appeal involving the same Assessee and Revenue, thus not qualifying as a substantial question of law. Consequently, the Appeal was dismissed concerning that question. However, the Court found the second question, regarding the deletion of disallowance under section 14A of the Income Tax Act, 1961 read with Rule 8D of the Income Tax Rules, to be a substantial question of law. The Appeal was admitted on this particular issue for further consideration. The Assessee, in this case, waived service, indicating a willingness to proceed with the legal proceedings without formal service. The Court directed the Registrar to ensure that the original record related to the Appeal is obtained from the Tribunal for inspection by the involved parties. While considering the current paper book as sufficient for admission purposes, the Registry was instructed to prepare a complete paper book in compliance with the Rules. Additionally, the Registry was required to inform the Tribunal about the admission of the Appeal and provide a copy of the Court's order for necessary actions to be taken by the Tribunal.
