05.2025 involving proceedings under section 147 r.ws. 144 of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (hereinafter referred to as ‘the Act’).
Heard both the parties. Case file perused.
2. It emerges during the course of hearing that there arises the first and foremost issue of validity of the impugned section 148A proceedings itself as the learned assessing authority had issued its corresponding notice dated 23rd March, 2022 to be replied by 29th
March itself as per the clinching factual position emanating from para 7.2 page 17 of the lower appellate discussion.
3. That being the case, we hereby quote (2023) 153
taxmann.com 70 (Bom.) Mukesh J. Ruparel vs. Income-tax Officer that such a reopening giving less than seven days statutory time period is not sustainable in the eyes of law, to quash the same in very terms.
All other remaining pleadings between the parties on merits stand rendered academic.
4. This assessee’s appeal is allowed.
Order pronounced in the open court on 24th December, 2025 (MANISH AGARWAL)
