SC Nullifies Bombay HC Verdict on full & true disclosure of material facts

Learned counsel for the assessee seeks permission to withdraw this Special Leave Petition in view of the fact that assessee’s appeal, bearing No. IT No.63/2012-2013 is pending before Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals) against the Order of re-assessment dated 29th May, 2012. We make it clear, that on the validity of Notice under Section 148 of the Income Tax Act, 1961, it would be open to the assessee as well as the Department to put forth their respective contentions before the Appellate Authority and the Appellate Authority will decide this issue also along with other issues without being influenced by the observations made by the High Court in the impugned order.
