ACIT Vs Amit Tiwari (ITAT Indore) The submissions of the assessee are that penalty proceedings u/s 271AAB as initiated is bad in law on account of firstly penalty notice so issued is defective as it does not disclose specific charge and secondly there is no concealed income as search took place prior to due date […]
