CARLSBERG INDIA PRIVATE LIMITED,NEW DELHI vs. ASSESSMENT UNIT, DELHI
What did the Tribunal hold?
The Tribunal held that the intimation under section 143(1) merges with the assessment order under section 143(3). Since the CIT(A) dismissed the appeal without a proper hearing, the matter was restored to the CIT(A) for a decision on merits.
What were the facts?
The assessee's appeal was dismissed ex-parte by the CIT(A) on the grounds that it should have been filed against the intimation under section 143(1) and not the subsequent assessment order under section 143(3). The assessee argued that the 143(1) adjustments merged with the 143(3) assessment and that no opportunity of being heard was provided.
What were the issues?
Whether the appeal against a section 143(3) assessment order is maintainable when the CIT(A) dismissed it based on the intimation under section 143(1), and whether principles of natural justice were violated by not providing a hearing.
Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?
