Commissioner of Income-tax -2 Vs. Larsen and Toubro Ltd

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Jul-10-2014

1. When these matters were called out, one of us (Justice B. P. Colabawalla), indicated to both the Assessee and Revenue that he holds shares of Assessee M/s. Larsen and Toubro Ltd, but both the sides fairly stated that the matter may not be removed from our Board. There is no need for Justice B. P. Colabawalla to recuse himself from this matter. It is on that agreed understanding and basis that we have heard both sides. 2.

Imposition of penalty under Section 271(1)(c) of the I. T. Act has been set aside by the Tribunal in all these matters on the findings of fact that merely because the Assessee raised a claim which was eventually disallowed, does not mean that ingredients of clause(c) are satisfied or fulfilled so as to justify imposition of penalty. 4. In doing so, the Tribunal me...
