Income Tax Updates: -
1.The Delhi High Court ruled that the Income Tax Department cannot offset TDS that has not been deposited by the deductor (employer) in the Central Government Account against the refund due and payable to the assessee because it is prohibited by Section 205 of the Income Tax Act, 1961. In this case, the assessee raised issue before the court that the outstanding demand for AY 2012-13, raised due to TDS, was not deposited by the employer with the Central Government, and that the refund due to him for AY 2015-16 was not paid to him, but was instead set-off against the said demand. (Sanjay Sudan vs ACIT, date of order 17.02.2023)
2.The ITAT bench of Chandigarh has deleted the addition u/s 69 and observed that as per the plain reading of section 69, it is clear that AO is under a legal obligation to give reasons for not accepting the explanations offered by the assessee. He cannot simply reject submissions of the assessee in summarily manner without any speaking order stating that 'it is an afterthought'. It is well settled position of law that the AO is expected to appreciate the reasonable explanation offered to him, the evidences produced before him about the nature and source of investment and he cannot make the additions merely on surmises, conjectures as well as without any supporting evidence. (ITA No. 569/Chd/2022)

Delhi High Court in a case has held that the revision powers conferred under section 264 of the Income-tax Act, 1961, on the CIT were very wide and could give relief to the taxpayer in a case where the taxpayer detected mistakes due to which he was over-assessed.
Further, it held that when a substantive law confers a benefit on the taxpayer under a statute, it could not be taken away by the adjudicatory authority on mere technicalities. Furthermore, it held that the Tax Officer should not take advantage of any error or mistake that a taxpayer committed. – [TS-163-HC-2016(Delhi)]
