Case Laws     Income Tax     HC

Reopening of assessment u/s 147 - denial of natural justice - order passed under Section 148A(d) - The legal principle that can be culled out from the aforementioned decisions is that the opportunity which is provided for under the scheme of the Act should be a meaningful and effective opportunity as such opportunity is not an empty formality. The assessee is entitled to be heard and such hearing should be a purposeful and effective hearing and not for the sake of showing as if a hearing was conducted. - HC
