Issues involved: Challenge to judgment and order u/s 260A of the Income-tax Act, 1961 regarding rectification of intimation under section 143(1) after finalization but before notice u/s 143(2).
Judgment Summary: Issue 1: Rectification under section 154 of the Income-tax Act The appellant challenged the judgment of the Income-tax Appellate Tribunal regarding the rectification of intimation under section 143(1) after finalization but before the notice under section 143(2). The substantial question of law was whether such rectification is permissible under section 154 ignoring the independence of sections 143(1) and 143(3). The respondent cited a previous judgment where the Assessing Officer issued a notice for rectification after the notice u/s 143(2), which was upheld. However, reference was made to another case where it was held that rectification of the original notice under section 143(1)(a) cannot be issued. The Court affirmed the Tribunal's judgment based on the settled position of law, stating that the appeal lacked merit. In conclusion, the appeal was dismissed as the controversy was found to be covered by previous judgments, and the rectification under section 154 was not permissible in the present case.
