Judgement

1. Where undisclosed income surrendered during search and seizure proceedings is derived from regular business activities, it is liable to be taxed at normal rate instead of tax rate stipulated under section 115BBE:
Principle Commissioner of Income Tax v. Krisna Kumar Verms (Madhya Pradesh : ITAT)

In this case, A search and seizure carried out under section 132 where the assesse surrendered undisclosed income of Rs. 4.53 crores during the assessment year 2017-18. The Assessing Officer taxed this income at a special rate under section 115BBE. However, on appeal, the Commissioner (Appeals) held that the income should be taxed at the normal rate as it was derived from regular business activities. The Tribunal upheld this decision.

On further appeal to the High Court, it was held that no substantial question of law arose from the Tribunal’s order. The High Court emphasized that an appeal to the High Court requires the presence of a substantial question of law, which was not found in this case. The appeal was dismissed as there was no merit in challenging the Tribunal’s decision, and the findings were based on a thorough consideration of the evidence available.

Bases on the above observations, The High Court dismissed the appeal, affirming the Tribunal’s decision and ruling that no substantial question of law arose from the case.
