Case Law Details
Sanjay Gandhi Memorial Trust Vs CIT (Delhi High Court)
Delhi High Court held that case can duly be transferred from Jurisdictional Assessing Officer to Central Circle by way of passing order under section 127 of the Income Tax Act.
Facts- The primary issue that arises for consideration in the present batch of writ petitions is whether the assessments of the petitioners could be transferred to the Central Circle by way of the impugned orders passed under Section 127 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 without sanction of the Central Board of Direct Taxes (‘CBDT’).
Conclusion- This Court is of the view that the assessments of the petitioners have been transferred to the Central Circle in accordance with law by way of the impugned orders passed under Section 127 of the Act. Accordingly, the present writ petitions along with pending applications are dismissed, without any order as to costs and the interim orders passed by this Court stand vacated. However, this Court clarifies that it has not examined the controversy between the parties on merits and they shall be at liberty to raise all their contentions and submissions before the concerned statutory authorities.
