Faceless Assessment: Court rejects concurrent jurisdiction, upholds FAO's exclusive authority over s.148 notices.

Case Laws     Income Tax

October 22, 2024

Faceless assessment provisions u/s 151A require notice u/s 148 for income escaping assessment to be issued by Faceless Assessing Officer (FAO), not Jurisdictional Assessing Officer (JAO). Court held JAO lacks jurisdiction to issue Section 148 notice, as it would breach Section 151A. FAO and JAO cannot have concurrent jurisdiction for issuing Section 148 notice or passing assessment/reassessment orders, as specific jurisdiction is assigned to either FAO or JAO under faceless assessment scheme, excluding the other. Allowing concurrent jurisdiction would render faceless proceedings redundant and create chaos. Since JAO admittedly lacked jurisdiction, the writ petition challenging Section 148 notice issued by JAO was allowed.
