Appellant: Vinod Kumar Arora, Meerut
Respondent: ITO Ward 2(4), Meerut
The appeal was filed by Vinod Kumar Arora against the CIT(A), Meerut’s decision dated March 29, 2019. The primary issues contested include disallowances related to development expenses and valuation of closing stock, which were considered arbitrary and excessive by the appellant.
During the proceedings, the appellant did not appear, leading to the case being decided based on the available records. Notably, previous notices were returned unserved, and no current address was provided by the appellant, complicating communication efforts.
The main contention involved the disallowance of Rs. 3,20,000 for development expenses. The tribunal, upholding the decision of lower authorities, dismissed the appeal based on the lack of sufficient evidence to support the claimed expenses. Additionally, issues regarding the overvaluation of closing stock were also dismissed, affirming the assessment order’s accuracy in stock valuation.
The tribunal’s decision reflects strict adherence to procedural compliance and the necessity for appellants to provide comprehensive evidence to support their claims. The outcome emphasizes the importance of maintaining detailed and accessible records in tax disputes.
