Sailesh Chandra Dutta Vs Assistant Commissioner (Calcutta High Court) Calcutta High Court quashes garnishee proceedings and original assessment order passed in violation of natural justice against which no appeal preferred Hon’ble Division Bench of the Hon’ble Calcutta High Court in the matter Sailesh Chandra Dutta Vs. Assistant Commissioner, Raiganj Charge, Raiganj & Ors M.A.T. 1062 […]
The attachment of the overdraft bank account was done by way of initiation of garnishee proceedings as a sequel to an order of assessment which had attained finality as the appeal against such assessment order was filed before the wrong forum and mandatory pre deposit for the purpose of filing of the appeal was also not made.
The common but most important feature in all these cases was that the entitlement of the writ petitioners to the input credit had crystallized. This crystallized right, which had ripened into the vested right, was being denied on account of procedural problem.
The show cause notice does not even allege that petitioner has obtained registration by fraud or willful misstatement or suppression of facts. There is a digital signature appended in the said document which says signature is not verified. Therefore, we have to take it to be an unsigned document. We fail to understand how it can be an official document.
Held that the conclusion that mere non-payment of duties is not equivalent to collusion or wilful misstatement or suppression of fact is untenable as the Act contemplates a positive action which betrays a negative intent of wilful default.
Abdul Majeed Vs ITO (Rajasthan High Court) High Court held that while passing an order under Section 148A of the Act, the authority is required to reach satisfaction to not only that income chargeable to tax has escaped assessment, but in case where three years have elapsed from the end of the relevant assessment year, […]

Held that when there is an appeal remedy available under Section 107, it is the settled proposition that, writ petition cannot be filed by invoking the extraordinary jurisdiction. Petitioner can file an appeal before the Appellate Authority and file a condone delay petition stating the Covid-19 situation.
Held that assessee submitted the records. Hence, the assessee has discharged his initial burden and the burden shifts on the assessing officer to enquire further into the matter which he failed to do.
