Validity of reopening u/s 147 r.w.s. 148 - The Tribunal found that the reasons recorded by the Assessing Officer (AO) for reopening the assessment under section 147/148 were based on incorrect assumptions and information. Specifically, the AO erroneously believed that the assessee, an individual, had entered into a transaction of sale of immovable property, whereas the transaction was actually between two partnership firms. - The Tribunal noted that the AO should have issued a notice to the partnership firm involved instead of the individual assessee. - Consequently, entire proceedings u/s. 148 is held to be invalid.
