According to the investigation wing, these groups were found to be interconnected with each other and with some group of entry operators providing accommodation entries to beneficiaries in the form of share capital, share premium, unsecured loans , purchase and sale bills etc. Various incriminating documents were found and seized during the course of search and seizure operation in the group cases. Accordingly, the case of the assessee was also centralized to ACIT , Central Circle 13, New Delhi vide order passed u/s 127 of the Act . Notice u/s 153A of the Act was issued to various assessees.
