Section 271E IT Act | Penalty U/s 271E Cannot Survive If Underlying Quantum Addition Is Deleted : ITAT Agra
ITAT Agra rules that penalty under Section 271E for cash repayments violating Section 269T is unsustainable once the primary addition (unexplained money) is deleted by appellate authority. The ruling reinforces that penalty jurisdiction is contingent on the existence of a valid quantum addition, impacting tax assessments involving cash transactions.
