Re–Appreciation / Reappraisal Of The Material Available On Record During The Original Assessment Proceedings: Reopening Of Assessment By Forming Of Opinion That Income Has Escaped Assessment By AO, Not Allowable:
Yum! Restaurants Asia Pte. Ltd. Vs. Dy. DIT (Delhi High Court) In the present case, having started off on a wrong note that the original assessment was scrutinized and an order was passed under section 143(3) of the Act, the assessing officer proceeded to put up the note to the DIT as is evident from […]
The Petitioner seeks the quashing of a notice dated 20-3-2015 issued under section 148 of the Income Tax Act (‘Act’) by the Assistant Commissioner (hereinafter assessing officer AO) and the order dated 1-2-2016 passed by the assessing officer disposing of the objections filed by the Petitioner to the said notice.
The AO’s reason for re-opening is that along with the certificate in Form 56F, which was the certificate of the CA, the working sheet of deduction was not enclosed. That was not a requirement of law. What Form 56F has to be accompanied with is specified under the Income Tax Rules itself. The mere fact that the working sheet may not have been enclosed does not amount to a failure by the Assessee to make a full and true disclosure of all material facts. Consequently, the Court is satisfied that the second reason for re-opening is also unsustainable in law.

Act.
Smt. Vidhya Poonia Vs ITO (ITAT Jaipur) AO at the time of initiation of proceedings under section 148 has to form the belief on the basis of the material available which is sufficient for coming to the conclusion that prima facie income assessable to tax has escaped assessment, therefore, filing of return with wrong jurisdiction could […]
