Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court allowed the civil appeal, setting aside the High Court's dismissal of the appeal under Section 260A of the Income Tax Act, 1961, regarding the denial of exemption under Sections 11 and 12 of the Act. The Court found that the High Court failed to recognize the substantial questions of law arising from the case, particularly concerning the source of the contribution received from Dubai and the timing of the trust's registration. The matter was remitted to the High Court for fresh determination without any influence from the Supreme Court's observations.
