It was found that the assessee<\/p>\n<p>owns 10 cents of land with a double storeyed building. Since the assessee<\/p>\n<p>has no known source of income for investment in the construction of<\/p>\n<p>residential building, a notice under Section 148 of the Act came to be<\/p>\n<p>issued. In reply to the said notice the assessee had stated that the cost of<\/p>\n<p>construction of the double storeyed building is in a sum of Rs.9,25,000\/-<\/p>\n<p>and the source of income was sale proceeds of the gold ornaments worth<\/p>\n<p>Rs.1,25,000\/-, loan amounts of Rs.70,000\/- and Rs.40,000\/- borrowed<\/p>\n<p>from her two brothers and Rs.1,70,000\/- advanced by her another brother<\/p>\n<p>by name Sasidharan. She had also stated that           a sum of Rs.5,20,000\/-<\/p>\n<p>was advanced by one Sri.Sundara Rajan.\n<\/p>\n<p>I.T.A.No.109 of 2008<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                          2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>              (3)     The assessing authority while completing the<\/p>\n<p>proceedings under Section 148 of the Act had noticed that neither the<\/p>\n<p>assessee&#8217;s brothers had appeared before him nor had they confirmed the<\/p>\n<p>payment of the loans to their sister. The assessing authority has further<\/p>\n<p>noticed that in addition to Rs.5,20,000\/- said to have been advanced by<\/p>\n<p>Sri.Sundara Rajan another sum of Rs.1,67,500\/- was also advanced by him<\/p>\n<p>which was adjusted from the amount given by Sri.Sasidharan.<\/p>\n<p>              (4) The assessing authority has further noticed that as per the<\/p>\n<p>valuation report of the residential building       done by the Assistant<\/p>\n<p>Valuation Officer of the Income Tax Department,           the value of the<\/p>\n<p>building works out at Rs.15,03,200\/-. This valuation report differs from<\/p>\n<p>the valuation report prepared by the registered valuer which was produced<\/p>\n<p>by the petitioner showing the cost of construction of the building as<\/p>\n<p>Rs.9,41,700\/- and, therefore, the total source available to the assessee was<\/p>\n<p>Rs.8,77,500\/- plus the agricultural income of Rs.75,000\/-. Accordingly,<\/p>\n<p>the assessing officer was of the opinion that the balance amount of<\/p>\n<p>Rs.5,50,700\/- was found to be undisclosed income, and accordingly had<\/p>\n<p>quantified the tax liability in a sum of Rs.1,95,280\/- and also had levied<\/p>\n<p>interest under Sections 234A and 234B of the Act. Thus the total demand<\/p>\n<p>that was made was in a sum of Rs.6,14,960\/-.\n<\/p>\n<p>I.T.A.No.109 of 2008<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                           3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>              (5) The assessee had called in question the orders passed by<\/p>\n<p>the assessing authority in exercise of his powers under Section 148 of the<\/p>\n<p>Act. The first appellate authority has granted partial relief to the assessee<\/p>\n<p>by giving a deduction of Rs.75,000\/- keeping in view that the Kerala PWD<\/p>\n<p>rates and CPWD rates vary and, therefore, the assessing authority was not<\/p>\n<p>justified in relying upon the valuation report of the Valuation Officer of<\/p>\n<p>the Department who had valued the property taking into consideration the<\/p>\n<p>CPWD rates.\n<\/p>\n<p>              (6) The assessee, being aggrieved by the orders passed by<\/p>\n<p>the first appellate authority, had carried the matter in second appeal before<\/p>\n<p>the Tribunal. The Tribunal, by its orders dated 13.7.2006, had remanded<\/p>\n<p>the matter to the assessing authority with a specific direction that the<\/p>\n<p>assessing authority will apply the PWD rates prevailing in the State of<\/p>\n<p>Kerala and quantify the tax liability.\n<\/p>\n<p>              (7) Aggrieved by the said order passed by the Tribunal, the<\/p>\n<p>Department is before us in this Income Tax Appeal filed under Section<\/p>\n<p>260A of the Act.\n<\/p>\n<p>              (8) The Department has raised the following questions of<\/p>\n<p>law for our consideration and decision. They are as under:<\/p>\n<p>I.T.A.No.109 of 2008<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                          4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>              &#8220;(1) Whether on the facts and in the circumstances<\/p>\n<p>       of the case and in the light of the contents in the annexures<\/p>\n<p>       to the assessment order the Tribunal is right in law and fact<\/p>\n<p>       in holding that the assessing officer has not given any<\/p>\n<p>       reason for rejecting the valuation report and is not the<\/p>\n<p>       finding perverse and without application of mind?<\/p>\n<p>              (2) Whether on the fact and in the circumstances of<\/p>\n<p>       the case the Tribunal is right in law in ignoring the detailed<\/p>\n<p>       reasoning given in the assessment order and in directing the<\/p>\n<p>       Assessing Officer to adopt the state PWD rate for valuation<\/p>\n<p>       of the property and is not the order one without application<\/p>\n<p>       of mind and hence perverse and nonest?\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>              (3) Whether on the fact and in the circumstances of<\/p>\n<p>       the case did not the Tribunal erred in directing adoption of<\/p>\n<p>       the state PWD rate for valuation based on decision of<\/p>\n<p>       unspecified orders of the Tribunal and High Court in other<\/p>\n<p>       case without examining the fact of the case in hand is not<\/p>\n<p>       such direction in effect based on conjectures and surmises?<\/p>\n<p>              (4) Whether on the fact and in the circumstances of<\/p>\n<p>       the case did not the Tribunal erred in not upholding the<\/p>\n<p>       order of the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals)<\/p>\n<p>       confirming the order of the Assessing Officer?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I.T.A.No.109 of 2008<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                          5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>              (9)   Sri.Jose Joseph, learned counsel appearing for the<\/p>\n<p>Revenue, in support of the questions of law framed by him, would submit<\/p>\n<p>that the Tribunal was not justified in directing the assessing authority to<\/p>\n<p>take only the PWD rates prevailing in the State of Kerala, and, therefore,<\/p>\n<p>the direction issued by the Tribunal to the assessing authority is arbitrary<\/p>\n<p>and violative of the statutory provisions.\n<\/p>\n<p>              (10) The Tribunal while deciding the assessee&#8217;s appeal has,<\/p>\n<p>in fact, relied upon number of case laws decided by various High Courts<\/p>\n<p>wherein the High Courts are of the opinion that there is variation between<\/p>\n<p>CPWD rates and PWD rates prevailing in the State and since the building<\/p>\n<p>that is constructed is within the State, naturally, the Department is<\/p>\n<p>expected to take into consideration the PWD rates prevailing in the State.<\/p>\n<p>Having come to that conclusion, as we have already noticed, the Tribunal<\/p>\n<p>had remanded the matter to the assessing authority.<\/p>\n<p>              (11) In view of the settled legal position that it is only the<\/p>\n<p>PWD rates that can be taken into consideration for the purpose of<\/p>\n<p>valuation of the building, in our opinion, the Tribunal was justified in<\/p>\n<p>allowing the assessee&#8217;s appeal and issuing a specific direction to the<\/p>\n<p>assessing authority.\n<\/p>\n<p>              (12) We do not find any error in the orders passed by the<\/p>\n<p>Tribunal.
