ITO Vs. Sh. Neeraj Goel (ITAT Delhi) IT(A) has rightly held that the assumption of jurisdiction to frame an assessment or non assumption of jurisdiction to frame an assessment goes to the root of the judicial act of framing an assessment order and in the event of non assumption of jurisdiction u/s. 143(2) of the […]
A.M. Muthiah & Anr. Vs DCIT (ITAT Mumbai) Issuance of notice under section 143(2) is mandatory, and absence thereof invalidates even a reassessment made in pursuance to section 148 and reliance placed by AO on section 292BB was misplaced.
This appeal is filed by the assessee against the order of the Learned Commissioner (Appeals)–21, Mumbai dated 28-3-2016 for the assessment year 2011-12. The assessee in its appeal raised several grounds of appeal both on validity of issue of service of notice under section 143(2)/148 of the Act as well on merits of the disallowances.
This petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India is directed against the notice dated 31-3-2017 issued by the respondent-Income Tax Officer under section 148 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (hereinafter referred to as the Act), seeking to reopen the assessment of the petitioner for assessment year 2010-11.
Reopening of assessment of A.Y. 2005-06 after expiry of four years without obtaining approval of an officer of the rank of Joint Commissioner was bad in law and even if such approval had been granted, by the officer superior i.e., the DIT, it would not cure the defect.
Reasons recorded by AO to reopen assessment merely on basis of information from DIT(Inv.) without independently applying his own mind could not be said to be reason to believe that income had escaped assessment hence, reopening was bad in law.
Prabhjit Singh Sidhu Vs. Asst. DIT (International Taxation) (ITAT Chandigarh) The facts before us also demonstrate that the disclosure in the return of income filed under section 148 of the Act was voluntary and before detection of the same by the Revenue. The payment of taxes on the said income two months prior to issue […]

Asstt Vs Maruti Clean Coal & Power Ltd. (ITAT Raipur) There is no dispute that no incriminating material has been found at the time of search and therefore it is now settled proposition of law that no assessment u/s. 153A of the Act can be framed in the absence of any incriminating material found at the […]
