Issues involved: Appeal against the judgment of the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal regarding the confirmation of profit share and deletion of balance amount in the case.
Judgment Summary: Issue A: The first question raised was whether the Tribunal was correct in confirming only 6.25% of the total profit amount for substantive order. The Tribunal reduced the addition to Rs. 13.53 lakhs at the rate of 6.25% of Rs. 2.16 crores, stating that the entire amount did not belong to the assessee. The Tribunal observed that the Assessing Officer added the amount without proper examination of facts. The Tribunal confirmed the addition to the extent of the assessee's share in profit and deleted the balance amount. Issue B: The second question raised was whether the Tribunal was right in holding that the balance of Rs. 2.16 crores, being the difference between the total amount and the confirmed amount, should be deleted. The Tribunal found that the Assessing Officer added the profit without examining the facts of the case. The Tribunal upheld the assessee's share of 6.25% in various projects and deleted the balance amount as there was no evidence to support that it belonged to the company. The Tribunal's decision was based on the fact that the assessee only had a 6.25% share in the profit, and there was no dispute regarding this share. The Tribunal concluded that the addition made by the Assessing Officer without proper examination was not sustainable, leading to the reduction of the profit to Rs. 13.53 lakhs. In conclusion, the High Court found no error in the Tribunal's decision and dismissed the Tax Appeal. The Court also allowed the parties to pursue further appeals regarding remaining additions made in the company's hands.
