ITA No. 31/CTK/2024 Assessment Year : 2014-15 Page2 | 4 2. Shri P.K.Sahoo, ld AR appeared for the assessee and Shri S.C.Mohanty, Sr. DR appeared for the revenue. 3. It was submitted by ld AR that the assessee is an autonomous body under the Central Government, Ministry of Tourism, Government of India, which is running a Hotel Management Catering Technology & Applied Nutrition College Training Centre at Bhubaneswar. It was the submission that the assessee had registration u/s.12AA of the Act vide order dated 28.11.2007 and had been granted registration u/s 10(23C) of the Act vide order dated 28.11.2017. It was the submission that for the impugned assessment year 2014-15, the assessee had filed its return of income in Form No.7 and had filed Form 10BB in place of Form 10B. It was the submission that consequently, the intimation u/s.143(1) came to be issued, wherein, exemption claimed by the assessee had been denied and the surplus had been treated as income liable to tax. It was the submission that on appeal before ld JCIT(A), the assessee had filed the requite form No.10B on 24.11.2023 but the JCIT(A) did not accept the same holding that JCIT(A) did not have power to condone the delay in filing Form 10B. It was the submission that both Form 10B and 10BB contain the same information necessary for assessment and the intimation which has been issued denying the assessee exemption under section 11 on account of wrong filing of Form No.10BB in place of Form 10B was not a prima facie adjustment, which could be done in the intimation u/s.143(1) of the Act. ITA No. 31/CTK/2024 Assessment Year : 2014-15 Page3 | 4 4. In reply, ld Sr DR vehemently supported the order of the AO and ld JCIT(A) and intimation issued u/s.143(1) of the Act. 5. We have considered the rival submissions. A perusal of the provisions of section 143(1) of the Act clearly shows that the adjustment that could be made are only those that have been specified in the provisions. The wrong filing of Form is not one of the reasons which are permissible for adjustment under section 143(1) of the Act. In any case, the Form which has been filed before the appellate authority admittedly is an extention of the assessment proceedings. This being so, it is held that the adjustment made in the intimation u/s.143(1) is devoid of merits and consequently the intimation issued u/s.143(1) stands quashed .6. In the result, appeal of the assessee stands allowed. Order dictated and pronounced in the open court on 07/08/2024.
