March 27, 2020

Case Laws     Income Tax     AT

Reopening of assessment u/s 147 - Merely creating a doubt of the transaction does not suffice the Assessing Officer to reopen the case u/s 148 - AO has to give proper reasons in case those documents are not at all produced in the original assessment itself.
