Hemant Kumar Mulchandani, Jabalpur vs Dcit Circle 1(1), Jabalpur, Jabalpur on 29 November, 2022
The absence of any material to support the assessee's case being admitted, there
must be something on record to exhibit the 'mistake', for which the surrounding
circumstances and conduct become relevant, which we though find as consistent
with the non-reporting of cash in IDS. The assessee before us relied on the
decisions in Mahaveer Kumar Jain vs. CIT (CA No.4166/2006, dated 19/04/2018)
and R. Natarajan vs. ACIT (ITA No. 1058/MDS/2010, dated 23/02/2012), to the
effect that income cannot be taxed twice, and on Pr. CIT vs. Manju Osatwal
[2022] 443 ITR 107 (Cal) and Gopalkrishnan Raj Kumar vs. Pr. CIT (in W.P.Nos.
6367 & 6374/2021, dated 22/04/2022) to the effect that where an income stands
declared under disclosure (immunity scheme), the same cannot be subject to tax
again.
