Investments Made Through Banking Channels Can't Be Disbelieved, Onus On Revenue To Prove Otherwise: Allahabad HC

Live Law  

Recently, the Allahabad High Court held that investments made through banking channels and show in regular returns cannot be disbelieved unless proven otherwise by the department. The bench comprising of Justice Saumitra Dayal Singh and Justice Shiv Shanker Prasad held there was “no room” to disbelieve investments made in the assesee company if they have been made through banking channels and have been disclosed in the returns of the investing companies. The question of law before the Court was “Whether on the facts and circumstances of the case and in law, the order of the ITAT was perverse on the ground that while deleting the addition of unexplained credits in the hands of assessee company, it did not allude to the material facts, chain of transactions and probative value of the statements and other incriminating facts as pointed out in the assessment order of the assessee as well as that of the investing entities, thus violating the ratio of judgment in case of Sudarshan Silk and Sarees 300 ITR 205?” The Court observed that the persons whose statements were recorded were either non-functional directors or had no knowledge about the transactions. “Prima facie, in face of investment made through banking channel which according to learned counsel for the revenue was duly disclosed in the regular returns of the investing entities, there does not exist any presumption or room to disbelieve the investment made in the assessee company.” The Court held that the burden to disprove such investments made through banking channel and duly declared was on the Department.
