Pratibha Singh Vs ACIT (ITAT Chandigarh)

The appeal before the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, Chandigarh Bench, arose from reassessment proceedings for Assessment Year 2009–10 framed under Sections 143(3) read with 147 of the Income-tax Act, 1961. The assessee had originally declared income of ₹4,81,340/-.

The reopening was upheld by the High Court, and the jurisdictional issue attained finality.
