Gedore Tools (India) P. Ltd. vs Commissioner Of Income-Tax on 25 February, 1992

16. As regards the objection of the Revenue to the ITAT permitting the Assessee to raise the point concerning non-issuance of notice under Section 143(2) of the Act for the first time in the appeal before the ITAT, the Court is of the considered view that in view of the settled legal position that the requirement of issuance of such notice is a jurisdictional one, it does go to the root of the matter as far as the validity of the reassessment proceedings under Section 147/148 of the Act is concerned. It raises a question of law as far as the present cases are concerned since it is not in dispute that prior to finalisation of the reassessment orders, notice under Section 143(2) of the Act was not issued by the AO to the Assessee.

Commissioner of Income Tax (supra).
