Rajendra Automobiles Vs. Income-tax Officer

Court: Income Tax Appellate Tribunal ITAT Allahabad

Decided on: Feb-17-1988

Reported in: (1988)25ITD555(All.)

1. The Appeal, filed by the assessee, is directed against the order of the Appellate Assistant Commissioner of Income-tax (AAC) confirming the penalty of Rs. 8,000 as levied by the Income-tax Officer (ITO) under Section 271(1)(c) of the Income-tax Act, 1961, in respect of the assessment year 1975-76. In this appeal, there are two questions to be decided. The first one is whether, in the facts of the case, it could be said that the assessee had concealed its income and thus had made itself liable to the imposition of penalty under Section 271(1)(c). In case the finding is to be given that penalty for concealment of income was leviable then the second question arising for consideration is whether penalty should be levied with reference to the provisions of law in existence at the time when the return, not disclosing true income, had been filed or in accordance with the provisions of the statute, as they existed on the date the order levying penalty was passed. The return was filed on 21...
