2008 (9) TMI 990 - HC - Income Tax

Issues involved: Condonation of delay, Disallowance of short term capital loss, Disallowance of long term capital loss.

Condonation of Delay: The High Court of Calcutta perused the application for condonation of delay and found sufficient cause to condone the delay of 43 days. The delay was thus condoned, and the application was allowed.

Disallowance of Short Term Capital Loss and Long Term Capital Loss: The case involved the disallowance of short term capital loss of Rs. 1,26,93,209/- and long term capital loss of Rs. 84,94,251/- on the sale of shares. The Assessing Officer (A/O) questioned the correctness of the sale prices of unquoted shares, but the appellant provided detailed information on the sale transactions, including dates, costs, buyer details, and more. The court held that the appellant had fulfilled its burden of proof by providing comprehensive details, while the A/O failed to produce any evidence to prove the sales were not genuine. Consequently, the court directed the A/O to treat the sale of shares as genuine and allow the claimed losses. The department's lack of evidence against the assessee led the court to uphold the decision of the Learned Tribunal, dismissing the appeal as no substantial question of law was found to be involved.

Conclusion: The appeal was dismissed, and all parties were directed to act on a xerox signed copy of the order.
