    When section 54 does not stipulate any such restriction of owning more than one residential house at the time of transfer of the original asset , it is surprising and disheartening to note that the PCIT did not accept the claim of the assessee and to add fuel to the fire both the assessing officer and the CIT (Appeals) did not accept the claim. In my opinion, this is a case where action needs to be taken against the PCIT, assessing officer and CIT (Appeals) by the CBDT, if it is considered that responsibility is to be fixed on the erring officers. Nowadays this type of irresponsible orders have become the order of the day as there is absolutely no control and supervision by the higher authorities. Hope that this comment reaches the eyes and ears of CBDT .
