Initiating proceedings u/s 153C - The High court held that the power under Section 153C necessitates the presence of incriminating material directly pertinent to the AYs under reassessment. This principle was steadfastly applied across various cases, underlining the need for a direct correlation between the evidence found during the search and the AYs for which the reassessment notices were issued. - The court observed that in many instances, the satisfaction notes and the subsequent notices failed to establish a clear link between the discovered incriminating material and the AYs to which the notices pertained. This lack of specificity rendered the assumption of jurisdiction for those AYs as legally unsound. - However, it leaves room for the department to reassess if concrete, incriminating evidence pertinent to the AYs in question emerges from the search operations.
