For revision under Section 263, the Assessing Officer's order must be both erroneous and prejudicial to the interests of the revenue; if either condition is not met, the revisionary jurisdiction cannot be invoked. An order is not erroneous merely because the Assessing Officer did not record the details of enquiries conducted, provided due enquiries were made.

…Rajasthan High Court in Ganpat Ram Bisnoi's case (supra). An incorrect assumption of facts or an incorrect application of law will satisfy the requirement of the order being erroneous as held by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Malabar Industrial Co.

AO passed the order not in accordance with the binding decision of Hon'ble P & H High Court in Mahender Pal Narang's case (supra) against which S…
