Case Laws Income Tax AT

ITAT dismissed Revenue's appeal against CIT(A)'s order invalidating reassessment proceedings under s.147. AO had previously examined share premium issue during original scrutiny assessment under s.143(3) and determined s.56(2)(viib) inapplicable. Reopening was based on identical issues without fresh tangible material, constituting mere change of opinion. AO failed to consider material facts including financial statements, assessment queries, written replies, and High Court-approved amalgamation scheme. AO incorrectly stated assessee issued shares to amalgamating company when shares were issued to shareholders of amalgamating company. Reassessment invalid as initiated without new information and based solely on change of opinion.
