whether AO is correct in holding that the assessee was not entitled exemption u/s.54 of the Act by rejecting the claim of the assessee to have deposited in capital gain deposit account?
M/s JDC Traders Pvt. Ltd. Vs DCIT (ITAT Delhi) A careful reading of Section 147 clearly shows that it empowers the learned AO to assess or re-assess the income in respect of any issue which had escaped the assessment irrespective of the fact that whether such aspect was adverted to in respect of the reasons […]
Not passing a speaking order rejecting the objections of assessee to reopening of assessment but passing an order under section 147 making the additions based on reasons recorded had caused serious prejudice to interest of assessee. Thus, reopening had not been done in accordance with the law by AO and, therefore, reassessment order was set aside.
Mere non quoting of the reasons for reopening by AO in the impugned notice would not vitiate the entire proceedings. Department had to furnish the reasons to assessee and on receipt of the reasons, if assessee were of the opinion that there were no additional material or new materials were available then they could submit their objections in respect of the change of opinion or reason to believe.

Satish Kumar Vs ITO (ITAT Delhi) It is an admitted fact that assessee filed reply in response to the notice under section 148 of the I.T.
