CIT v. Batra Bhatta Company

321 ITR 526High Court2010#3146 most cited

What is CIT v. Batra Bhatta Company authority for?

An assessment is invalid if the Assessing Officer (AO) seeks only to ascertain the source of funds without forming a belief, based on tangible material, that income chargeable to tax has escaped assessment. A mere expression of doubt or a need for deeper scrutiny without any supporting evidence does not justify invoking reassessment powers.
