Bhima Jewellers v. Commissioner of Income Tax
Case brief
What is this about?
The High Court held that unexplained income under Section 68 can be classified under a head of Section 14 if explained. It allowed set-off of losses under the 2013 version of Section 115BBE, which did not forbid such set-off before the 2016 amendment.
What did the court decide?
The orders of the Tribunal and Commissioner setting aside the assessment were set aside; the original assessment order was restored and the appeal allowed.
