Tax Reassessment Upheld: Undisclosed Offshore Transactions Trigger Reopening of Assessment Under Section 147

April 28, 2025

Case Laws     Income Tax     HC

HC upheld tax reassessment proceedings for AY 2009-2010, finding valid jurisdictional grounds for reopening assessment. The court determined that information about bogus loan transactions routed through tax haven entities was obtained post original assessment, justifying reopening under Section 147. The petitioner's failure to disclose material facts about circuitous fund transfers through offshore companies in Cyprus and Mauritius constituted sufficient reason for reassessment. The HC rejected challenges to reassessment, emphasizing the revenue's objective to bring escaped income to tax, and dismissed the petition challenging the reassessment notice.
