Recovery of tax dues of the company from the Director u/s 179(1) - Director is now no more (deceased) - Before passing an order u/s 179, the Assessing Officer should have made out a case as required under Section 179(1) of the Act that the tax dues from the company cannot be recovered. Only after the first requirement is satisfied would the onus shift on any Director to prove that non recovery cannot be attributed to any gross neglect, misfeasance or breach of duty on his part in relation to the affairs of the company. - HC
