What did the Tribunal hold?

The core issue revolved around the validity of proceedings initiated under Section 153C for assessment years 2006-07 and 2007-08, based on a satisfaction note recorded on November 18, 2013, following a search on March 22, 2012.

What were the issues?

The primary issue was whether the proceedings initiated under Section 153C were valid given the dates of the search, satisfaction note, and the relevant assessment years, and whether the assessments were barred by limitation.

Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?

Section 153C,Section 6(3)(ii),Section 9(1),Section 124(4),Section 144C,Section 143(2)
