Russell Properties (P.) Ltd. v. A. Chowdhury, Addl. CIT

109 ITR 229High Court1977#2757 most cited

What is Russell Properties (P.) Ltd. v. A. Chowdhury, Addl. CIT authority for?

The power of revision under Section 263 is not arbitrary and cannot be exercised merely because the Assessing Officer adopted one of the permissible courses in law, even if it leads to a loss of revenue. An assessment order is not erroneous and prejudicial to the revenue if the Assessing Officer has taken a plausible view or conducted an inquiry, as the revisional power has limitations and cannot be used for fresh enquiries into concluded matters.
