Case Law Details
Green Orchard Farm Houses Vs DCIT (ITAT Bangalore)
The Ld.AR has placed reliance on the judgment of Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of ACIT & anr. Vs. Hotel Blue Moon reported in (2010) 321 ITR 362 wherein Hon’ble Supreme Court held that an omission on part of the Assessing Officer u/s. 143(2) cannot be procedural irregularity and the same is not curable. As the notice was not issued within the period of limitation, the empathetic statement of law in the absence of issuance of notice u/s. 143(2) within the period of limitation by the revenue would therefore inure to the benefit of the assessee.
The Statute make its imperative that notice u/s. 143(2) is to be issued within the period of limitation and any omission or failure would be hit at the root of the jurisdiction applying the principles laid down by the Hon’ble Supreme Court in various judgments.
Accordingly, we hold the assessment order passed by the Ld.AO to be bad in law and the same is quashed.
