Issues involved: Appeal against Tribunal's order dated 10-9-2007 for the assessment year 2001-02, pertaining to penalty u/s 271(1)(c) for disallowance of foreign travel expenses.
Summary: Issue 1: Tribunal's order for the assessment year 2001-02 The appeal is against the Tribunal's order dated 10-9-2007 for the assessment year 2001-02, which is a composite order for two assessees, Continental Carriers Pvt. Ltd. and Continental Air Express Pvt. Ltd. In the case of Continental Air Express Pvt. Ltd., the issue in the quantum appeal has been sent back for reconsideration by the Assessing Officer. Issue 2: Penalty u/s 271(1)(c) for disallowance of foreign travel expenses The proceedings relate to penalty u/s 271(1)(c) for disallowance of foreign travel expenses by the Assessing Officer. The Tribunal's order dated 5-4-2007 in the quantum appeal indicated that the issue of disallowance of foreign travel expenses was sent back to the Assessing Officer for a fresh decision. As the quantum appeal was allowed on this ground and remanded to the Assessing Officer, it was argued that the penalty proceedings arising from the same orders cannot continue. The revenue did not appeal against the Tribunal's order in ITA No. 1397/Delhi/2005. The court agreed with the respondent's counsel that there is no merit in the appeal and dismissed it.
