What did the Tribunal hold?

The Tribunal held that the AO correctly exercised powers under section 154 as the intimation under section 143(1) was not merged with the assessment order under section 143(3) when the issues were different. The withdrawal of the appeal against the 143(1) order did not preclude the rectification.

What were the facts?

The assessee's return for AY 2017-18 was initially processed under section 143(1) with an addition for delayed PF/ESI deposit and house property income. The assessee withdrew an appeal against this order after a scrutiny assessment under section 143(3) was completed. Subsequently, the AO rectified the 143(3) order under section 154 to include the additions from the 143(1) intimation, stating they were missed.

What were the issues?

Whether additions made in a section 143(1) intimation can be rectified into a section 143(3) assessment order under section 154, and whether the doctrine of merger applies in this scenario.

Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?

Section 143(1),Section 143(3),Section 154,Section 36(1)(va)
