When Does A Tax Liability Accrue? Article 265 of the Constitution of India provides that no tax shall be levied or collected except by the authority of law. Such tax does not depend upon an assessment to be made by the assessing officer.

Such an interpretation will prevent anyone taking advantage of a property sale, for example, in January 2008, facilitating an immediate Rs 50 lakh investment in January 2008 in specified assets, and another Rs 50 lakh investment before the expiry of six months after sale in specified assets.
