The case involved a challenge to penalty orders u/ss 271D and 271E before the Appellate Tribunal. The issue revolved around the reassessment proceedings being quashed, leading to the argument that penalty proceedings should not stand. The Assessing Officer alleged violations u/ss 269SS and 269T due to transactions involving loans taken and repayments made outside the prescribed methods. The Tribunal noted that the reassessment proceedings had been invalidated, rendering the penalty proceedings baseless. Citing relevant case law, the Tribunal ruled in favor of the assessee, deleting the penalties imposed by the Assessing Officer.
