The petitioner claims that the petitioner had no information about the said orders and even the notice was not served properly. The petitioner's contention is that both the assessment orders are ex parte and the orders themselves were brought to the notice of the petitioner only when notice of attachment was issued to the bank in which the petitioner maintains an account.
