Crucial findings: No evidence of serving notice u/s 154 dated 01.12.2015 to the assessee, violating natural justice by not providing opportunity of being heard. Unexplained inordinate delay of 3 months in serving the rectification order dated 19.03.2018, despite promptly serving the original order u/s 143(3).
