Supreme Court Of India
CIT vs. Century Park
Section 268A, 260A
H.L Dattu And Arun Mishra, JJ.
Psla (C) No.10226 Of 2015
April 1, 2015
ORDER
1. Delay condoned.
2. Liberty is given to the Department to move the High Court pointing out that the Circular dated February 9, 2011, should not be applied ipso facto, particularly, when the matter has a cascading effect. There are cases under the Income-tax Act, 1961, in which a common principle may be involved in subsequent group of matters or large number of matters. In our view, in such cases if attention of the High Court is drawn, the High Court will not apply the Circular ipso facto. For that purpose, liberty is granted to the Department to move the High Court in six weeks’ time from today.
3. The special leave petition is, accordingly, disposed of.
