Sir Ratan Tata Trust, Mumbai vs Cit (Exemption), Mumbai on 16 February, 2022
9. We have heard the rival submissions and perused the materials available on
record. It is observed that the impugned order of the ld. CIT(A) arises out of the
assessment order passed in consequence of the revisionary order of the ld.CIT(E) passed
u/s. 263 of the Act. Pertinently, the revisionary order u/s. 263 of the Act has been
quashed by the Tribunal (in ITA No. 773/Mum/2021 for A.Y. 2016-17 vide order dated

therefore, are of the view that the assessment order passed u/s.144 r.w.s. 263 of the Act is
liable to be quashed and, therefore, deem it fit to allow ground nos. 1 to 4 of the
assessee's appeal.
