Vijay Television (P.) Ltd. v. DRP

369 ITR 113High Court2014#723 most cited

What is Vijay Television (P.) Ltd. v. DRP authority for?

Passing a final assessment order under Section 143(3) directly, without first issuing a draft assessment order under Section 144C(1) for an eligible assessee, constitutes a fundamental jurisdictional defect. This defect cannot be cured by a subsequent corrigendum, especially if issued beyond the prescribed period of limitation.
