AGR Investments Ltd. v. Addl. CIT (Del)

333 ITR 146High Court2011#2448 most cited

What is AGR Investments Ltd. v. Addl. CIT (Del) authority for?

For initiating reassessment proceedings under Section 147, the Assessing Officer must possess fresh tangible material or specific information, often from the investigation wing, which forms a direct nexus with the reason to believe that income has escaped assessment, demonstrating the application of mind. A prima facie reason, rather than a final verdict, is sufficient to assume jurisdiction for issuing a notice under Section 148.
