Further, after hearing the assessee on merits also, we find that the assessee has an arguable case on merits.

  10. ITAT Pune · 18 May 2020
    It is an undisputed fact that the assessee is a qualified doctor, a Gynecologist and Anesthetist. She runs a nursing home. It is also admitted fact that the assessee attends to the patients and treats them in OPD and others. Therefore, mere running a nursing home/hospital does not convert a medical doctor into a business woman. Running a nursing home by her alone is a part of the medical profession. It is a different way of conducting her medical profession.

    Considering the nature of business of assessee and that no evidence has been brought on record by the A.O. of incurring all these expenses, the estimate made by the A.O. of ₹ 10 lakhs expenditure is wholly unjustified. It is a fact that assessee has not claimed any expenditure of routine business expenses, electricity expenses, fuel expenses which are necessary for running of the business. We restrict the addition to ₹ 3 lakhs as against ₹ 10 lakhs made by the A.O.

  18. ITAT Delhi · 16 May 2020
    The words benefit and perquisite are used in this clause of sub-section (24) to Section 2. Whether gifting shares amounts any benefit or perquisite has to be looked into.
