Steering Securities & Finance Pvt Ltd Vs ITO (ITAT Delhi)
Introduction: The ITAT Delhi’s recent judgment in the case of Steering Securities & Finance Pvt Ltd Vs ITO has presented crucial insights into the interpretation and adherence to the Income Tax Act. Central to this case was the legitimacy of a notice issued without examining the assessee’s return.

2. The notice under section 148 wasn’t timely served to the appellant.
