Decision: In favor of assessee

Assessment Year: 2002- 03 & 2003- 04
Whether
failure on part of AO for examining truly and fully all the material
facts by the assessee could lead to reassessment and also mere
information regarding income escapement can be considered valid for the
purpose of sec. 147?
Held No,
in this case, the AO issued notice u/s 148 on the basis of the letter
of DIT (Inv.) which was vaguely referred and also the facts as contained
in the said communication were not mentioned. On examining the facts
and Audi Partem Alteram, it was concluded as the reassessment
proceedings was carried out without any material facts and were
completely vague and therefore the appeal was dismissed by the Hon’ble
High Court as no question of law arises.
