Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal by the Rajasthan State Electricity Board against the High Court's decision upholding additional tax demands under Section 143(1-A) of the Income Tax Act, 1961. The court examined the claim of 100% depreciation made by the assessee due to a bona fide mistake and clarified the applicability of depreciation rates. Ultimately, the court ruled in favor of the assessee, allowing the appeal and setting aside the additional tax demand.
