Section 115BAA | Delay in Filing Form 10-IC Does Not Invalidate Concessional Tax Rate If Eligibility and Intent Are Clear : ITAT Delhi
The ITAT Delhi has ruled that a late filing of Form 10-IC under Section 115BAA does not automatically disqualify a company from the 22% concessional tax rate, provided the intent to opt in is evident and eligibility is not in dispute. This sets a critical precedent for businesses facing administrative delays, affirming that substance overrides mere procedural non-compliance in direct tax matters.
