vkns'k@ORDER
PER: NARINDER KUMAR, JUDICIAL MEMBER .
This common order is to dispose of the above captioned two appeals filed by the department, as common issues are involved, and as such K.P. Exports Pvt. Ltd, Jaipur.
Learned DR for the department-appellant and Ld. AR for the respondent have put forth common submissions in respect of both the appeals together.
2. First mentioned appeal relates to the assessment year 2013-14, whereas the second mentioned appeal relates to the assessment year
2015-16. 3. Each appeal arises out of order dated 12.07.2024, passed by Learned CIT(A).
4. Today, when these appeals have been taken up for hearing, Ld. AR for the appellant has presented copy of notice dated 30.01.2025 of the Act, recently issued by the department to the assessee in respect of the two assessment years under consideration i.e. 2013-14 and 2015-16. 5. Vide impugned order, Learned CIT(A) allowed two separate appeals filed by the assessee, while placing reliance on the decision of our own
Hon’ble High Court in Shyam Sunder Khandelwal v. ACIT, (2024) 161
taxmann.com 255 (Rajasthan), DB Civil Writ Petition No. 18363 of 2019
and others, holding that the additions made by the Assessing Officer, in respect of each assessment year i.e. 2013-14 and 2015-16 were legally not K.P. Exports Pvt. Ltd, Jaipur.
sustainable on the technical ground that notices issued by the Assessing
Officer to the assessee were issued u/s 148 of the Act, whereas in the given facts and circumstance, notices u/s 153C of the Act were required to be issued, in view of procedure prescribed u/s 153C and 153D for assessment in cases of search and seizure.
6. In view of the above decision by our own Hon’ble High Court, which squarely applies to the facts of the present two appeals, we do not find any illegality or irregularity in the impugned orders passed by Learned CIT(A) whereby two appeals filed by the same assessees have been allowed, while setting aside the two assessment orders.
7. Even otherwise, as noticed above, department has already issued notices dated 30.1.2025 to the assessee in respect of each assessment year under consideration. This goes to suggest that the department has accepted the decision by our own Hon’ble High Court on the point of illegality of notices, which were earlier issued by the department to the assessee.
Result
8. In view of the above discussion, both appeals filed by the department are hereby dismissed.
K.P. Exports Pvt. Ltd, Jaipur.
Copy of the common order be placed in the connected appeal file.
Files be consigned to the record room after the needful is done by the office.
Order pronounced in the open court on 15/05/2025. ¼xxu xks;y½
