Decided on: Feb-05-2003

Reported in: (2004)89ITD267(Mum.)

1. These two appeals filed by the assessee pertain to the AY 89-90 & 90-91. Interest charged under Section 201(1A) of the Income Tax Act 1961 is the subject matter of dispute before us.2. The facts of the case revolve in a narrow compass. The assessee is an employer. It filed annual returns of salary under Section 206 of the Income Tax Act 1961. On scrutiny of the same, the assessing officer found that the assessee, in his capacity as any employer, has deducted very negligible sum as income tax from the salary of its employees in the initial months of the year and deducted very high amounts of tax in the last few months. Therefore, the assessing officer was of the view that the assessee had failed to deduct correct amount of tax from the salary of the employees. Accordingly, a show cause notice was issued to the assessee but in the absence of any reply, the assessing officer presumed that the assessee failed to deduct correct tax in each month as required under Section 192(1) of t...
