Case Laws     Income Tax     HC

As per the Scheme of Amalgamation, the effective merger date of the petitioner company with another company was 01.04.2012. Post-merger, the petitioner ceased to exist, and its tax liability merged with the transferee company. The transferee was obligated to include the transferor's tax liability. Issuing assessment orders against the non-existent transferor post-merger was incorrect. The impugned assessment orders were quashed, and the writ petitions were allowed by the HC.
