The High Court noted that while the petitioner made a declaration under Section 59 of the 2015 Act after becoming aware that authorities had some clue about his undisclosed assets, certain issues require further examination. The first issue identified is determining the precise date when the respondents/revenue acquired tangible information regarding the petitioner's undisclosed assets.
