Since, AO failed to confront the assessee for rebuttal and passed the order without even bringing to the notice of the assessee as to which of the income was covered under tax deducted at source certificate and which part of the income remained undisclosed, hence order of CIT(A) deleting such addition is upheld – Decided against Revenue - I.T.A.No.1289/Del/2012 - - - Dated:- 27-7-2012 - SHRI A.N.

This enhancement was carried out under section 154 of income tax act. I have gone through the rectification order and the submissions of the appellant. In response to the show cause by the AO u/s 154, the appellant responded vide its letter dated 12 May 2007, received by the assessing officer on 15th may 2007. The AO in the rectification order dated 26 Feb, 2010 acknowledged the receipt of this letter filed on 15 May 2007, in para 2 of his order. In the reply, the appellant objected to the rectification u/s 154 on the ground that this is not a mistake of facts apparent from record. The .....

A question on which there is difference. of opinion among the two judges of High Court, cannot be rectified by invoking provisions of section 154.

The Commissioner of Income Tax(A) considered the submissions of the assessee and held that the assessee successfully demonstrated that out of income shown in the profit and loss account under the head of other income, the income of Rs.99,93,995 related to commission received and other miscellaneous income.
