The Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) examined the issue of merger of intimation u/s 143(1) and scrutiny assessment u/s 143(3) of the Income Tax Act. The case involved an assessment u/s 143(3) where additions were made and refund was determined, subsequent to the issuance of notice u/s 143(2). However, the assessee's revised return was processed u/s 143(1) on the same day as the assessment order u/s 143(3). The ITAT held that the principle of merger is not applicable as the disallowances made u/s 143(1) and Section 143(3) were different. The ITAT analyzed the provisions of Section 143(1D) and Section 241A, concluding that once a notice u/s 143(2) is issued, the Assessing Officer shall not process the return u/s 143(1). Consequently, the ITAT ruled that the intimation passed u/s 143(1)(a) was bad in law and allowed the assessee's appeal.
