..... ice to the interest of Revenue. Therefore, it was submitted that Section 263 has wrongly been invoked by the learned CIT. Learned AR relied upon the following decisions to support his following contentions :- A. To invoke Section 263, the assessment order passed by the AO should be erroneous as well as prejudice to the interest of Revenue and both the conditions must co-exist : i) 243 ITR 83 (SC) (Malabar Industrial Co. Ltd. Vs. CIT); ii) 203 ITR 108 (93) (CIT Vs. Gabrial India Ltd.); iii) 163 ITR 129(97) (Venkata Krishna Rice Co. Vs. CIT); B. In a case where the AO had undertaken the required investigation in allowing the claim for deduction under Section 80M and the assessee had produced material to show that the dividend in question had suffered dividend tax within the meaning of S.115-O, the CIT erred in exercising his revision powers to reverse the order passed by the AO : i) 31 SOT 278 (2009) (Neelam Mercantile (P) Ltd. Vs. ITO); ii) 21 SOT 111(2008) (ECD Electronics & Electrolysis Pvt. Ltd. Vs. CIT); iii) 108 ITD 321 (2007) (Habibullah Khanyari Vs DCIT); iv) 86 TTJ 1095 (Mrs. Khatiza S. Oommerbhoy Vs.

..... nsidered. We have carefully gone through the assessment order in which there is no discussion regarding the issue relating to sale and purchase of shares. However, from the letters issued by the AO, which have been discussed in the above part of this order, it is clear that a detailed examination has been done by the AO regarding transactions of sale & purchase of shares entered into by the assessee. Investigation in this regard was started vide notice dated 10-10-2007. Thereafter, on various dates, he was requiring the assessee to submit various details. In the letters submitted by the assessee to the AO, the details are submitted as per requirement of the AO. The correspondences entered into between the assessee and the AO, clearly reveal that the AO required the assessee to file various details, which were filed by the assessee.

The transactions are duly supported by the bills issued by the broker and are through stock exchange for which appropriate evidences were submitted. 10. In view of the above facts, it can be observed that Section 263 has been invoked only for the reason that the AO did not apply his mind on these transactions. This finding of the learned CIT is against the correspondence and evidences which are placed on record by the assessee during the course of original assessment proceedings and copy of these documents are also filed before us. 11. Learned CIT also could not specify any discrepancy either in the rates of shares purchased and sold by the assessee or any incorrectness in the claim of the assessee regarding capital gain shown by the assessee as all the facts were again placed before him. In absence of any material to suggest that these transactions were not valid/genuine transactions, it will mere be a case of a change of opinion by the learned CIT. On the basis of information submitted b .....
