This article delves into the details of ITA No. 92/DEL/2019, a significant tax appeal filed by Naresh Kumar Sharma for the assessment year 2012-13, which highlights procedural oversights in tax assessments.
The appeal challenges the decision of the CIT(A), Karnal, which upheld a substantial addition of Rs.6,02,47,500 to Sharma’s income, allegedly ignoring the appellant’s written submissions.
Despite multiple hearings, there was no representation from Sharma’s side, leading to the appeal’s dismissal based on non-appearance. This decision was later contested, emphasizing the non-consideration of crucial submissions made via email, which could potentially impact the outcome of the case.
The case discusses the importance of considering all submissions and documents provided by the taxpayer and the need for tax authorities to deliver justice by acknowledging all available evidence before rendering a decision.
The article concludes by reflecting on the implications of this case for procedural fairness in tax litigation. It underlines the necessity for appellate bodies to meticulously review all procedural aspects to ensure equitable decisions.
