Condonation Denied for Departmental Delay ITAT Bangalore Rejects Revenue Appeal in DCIT v. Alten Global Technologies Pvt. Ltd

The Bangalore Bench of the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal dismissed the Revenue’s appeal solely on the ground of unexplained delay in filing. 

The Tribunal held that routine administrative reasons such as “time barring matters” and “miscellaneous work” cannot constitute sufficient cause for condonation of delay, particularly when even the period of delay was inaccurately stated.
