Live Law  

The Delhi Bench of the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal consisting of C.N. The assessee/appellant has challenged the validity of the assessment made by the Assessing Officer as the assessment was reopened for escapement of income on account of cash deposits made into the bank account by the assessee. The reasons recorded by the Assessing Officer have reason to believe that the income of the assessee has escaped assessment in respect of cash deposits as they remained unexplained. There was no other addition or disallowance made by the Assessing Officer, which relates to cash deposits by the assessee made into his bank account. The ITAT held that the reassessment order passed by the Assessing Officer under Section 143 read with Section 147 of the Income Tax Act was bad in law and liable to be quashed.
