Gkn Driveshafts (India) Ltd vs Income Tax Officer And Ors on 25 November, 2002

17. Before closing we would recall that the objections raised by the assessee against the notice for reopening remained pending with the Assessing Officer for nearly 6 months. Sometime in the middle of December, 2011 the Assessing Officer disposed of such objections and, thereafter proceeded to pass the final order of assessment in less than two weeks. Had this been an isolated case of such nature, we would have passed it off as one-off instance. However, such tendency to delay disposing of the objections and, thereafter at the fag end of final time limit, to frame the assessment, is noticed in more cases than one. We cannot approve of such tendency. This we are sure was not the intention of the Apex Court when the decision in the case of GKN Driveshafts (India) Ltd. vs. Income-Tax Officer and others reported in [2003]259 ITR 19 was rendered. We are sure this would be brought to the notice of the Assessing Officers by the Department so that such instances do not recur in future. Petition is disposed of accordingly.
