Under such circumstances, we fail to comprehend as to how the assessment order can be termed as erroneous and prejudicial to the interest of revenue. The position would have been different if the AO had accepted the contention of the assessee of being covered under rule 6DD(g) without any support of the certificates.

Though the reassessment order was passed on 29.12.2016, the relevant assessment order for the purposes of advances from customers is the original assessment order, which was passed on 21.03.2014. The period of two years from the end of financial year in which the order was passed, came to end on 31.03.2016. As the impugned order has been passed in the year 2019, it is therefore, held to be barred by limitation on the issue of advances from customers. We, therefore, set aside the impugned order on this score as well. Assessee appeal is allowed. - ITA No. 231/PUN/2020 - - - Dated:- 6-6-2022 - SHRI R.S. SYAL, VICE PRESIDENT AND SHRI S.S.

Thus, it is apparent that the question of verification of advances from customer totaling to Rs.89,60,500 was not the subject matter of re-assessment concluded by means of an order on 29.12.2016. Once the issue of advances from customers is held to be not a part of re-assessment proceedings, naturally, it will pertain to the original assessment proceedings. 7. The limitation for revision is contained in sub-section (2) of section 263 of the Act, being, a period of two years from the end of financial year in which the order sought to be revised was passed.
