Therefore, I have reason to believe that income of ₹ 6,44,90,691 (133169110 68678419) has escaped assessment within the meaning of section 147 of the Act due to failure on the part of the assessee to disclose truly and fully all material facts.

Notice u/s 148 of the Act was issued on 25th March, 2011 after obtaining the approval from the learned CIT-10, Mumbai which was duly served on the assessee on 1st April, 2011.

The ld. CIT(A), on perusal of the assessment order u/s 143(3) of the Act dated 24.12.2007 observed that the A.O. has nowhere made any reference to the reconciliation of TDS on freight payments and hence it appears that no such query was raised by the A.O. during the original assessment proceedings u/s 143(3) of the Act. The assessee submitted that the said reconciliation was duly submitted and produced the copy of letter dated 18-12-2007 addressed to the AO which was submitted before the A.O. with respect to reconciliation of TDS on freight payments. However, the ld. CIT(A) observed that nothing as such has been mentioned in that letter nor there is a reference of any enclosure thereto, hence, the assessee has not substantiated its claim of deduction of TDS on freight payments. Thus, the ld. CIT(A) observed that the assessment order u/s 143(3) of the Act dated 24th December, 2007 was passed by the A.O. without application of mind on the issue o .....
