Delhi ITAT: Information regarding secret data used by the tax department should be shared with the taxpayer

In the case of Adobe Systems India Pvt. Ltd. vs. JCIT (ITA No.5693, Del, 2011), Delhi Bench of the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal observed that in case tax authorities uses some information or data, in respect of which information is not available in public domain (secret data), for the purpose of computation of the arm's length price in such case such information/ data should be supplied to the taxpayer for his objection or examination. The absence of such opportunity violates the fundamental principle of natural justice.
