Reopening of Assessment Invalid u/s 147; Revenue Audit Report Not New Information; Appeal Favors Assessee.

August 7, 2024

Case Laws     Income Tax     AT

Reopening of assessment u/s 147 was not valid as the Revenue Audit Report merely pointed out discrepancy in computation method and opined on applicability of Section 50C, which is an interpretation of law and not 'information' required for reopening. The Assessing Officer's reasons recorded for reopening showed lack of reason to believe income escaped assessment, being mere reason to suspect based on change of opinion. Section 50C was held inapplicable to sale after conversion of capital asset into stock-in-trade, following precedents. The appeal was allowed in favor of the assessee.
