Chhugamal Rajpal vs S. P. Chaliha & Ors on 21 January, 1971
27. 'Narayanappa' (supra) is dated 27.09.1966, whereas
'Chhugamal' (supra) was handed down on 21.01.1971. Both
these judgments have been rendered by co-equal Benches of the
Hon'ble Apex Court. Now, it is well settled that in such a
situation, the judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court, which is
later in point of time has to be followed.
Shri Abdul Majid vs Commissioner Of Income-Tax on 10 May, 2005
In 'Abdul Majid Vs. CIT', 281 ITR 366 (All), the assessee
moved an application for addition of grounds in grounds of
appeal before Tribunal on the ground that since the reasons
were not recorded before issuing the notice, the requirement of
section 148(2) was not complied with and, therefore, the
proceedings were invalid and void ab initio. However, the ITAT
did not permit the assessee to raise this plea. On appeal before
the Hon'ble High Court, it was held that even if a plea, relating
to lack of jurisdiction of officer on ground that no reason was
recorded before issue of notice under section 148(2), is not
raised at the first instance before the assessing authority, it can
be raised before the appellate authority at a later stage and that
therefore, Tribunal had erred in not allowing the assessee to
raise the additional grounds challenging the validity of the
assessment order on the basis of illegal initiation of
proceedings under section 148.

Alloys Ltd. Vs. ITO', in ITA No. 2421/Del/2017 (PBP- 68-108)

M/S. Ginni Filaments Ltd. vs Commissioner, Of Income Tax-I, Agra on 31 March, 2011
In 'M/s Ginni Filaments vs. CIT', Writ Tax No. 1402 of
2004 (All), the assessee had not valued its closing stock as per
the provisions of Section 145A of the IT Act. Notice under
section 148 was issued, which was challenged before the
Hon'ble High Court. The Hon'ble High Court, while sustaining
the notice under section 148, held that at this stage, it can be
said that there is relevant material on the record to form a
reasonable belief that the taxable income of the assessee has
escaped assessment, in view of section 145-A of the Act. The
present controversy was not involved therein.
Income Tax Officer, Jodhpur vs Purushottam Das Bangur & Anr on 22 January, 1997
In 'ITO vs. Purushottam Das Bangur', 224 ITR 362 (SC),
re-assessment proceedings were upheld where the Assessee
claimed that he had incurred capital loss on sale of shares held
in a company, which was based on official quotation at
Calcutta Stock Exchange and the same was allowed in original
assessment. Subsequently, the ITO received a letter from the
Directorate of Investigation, giving detailed particulars
collected from the Bombay Stock Exchange, which revealed
that the quotation appearing at Calcutta Stock Exchange was a
result of manipulated transaction. On the very next day of
receipt of the letter, the ITO issued notice under section 147(b).
The Hon'ble Supreme Court found that the letter from the
Directorate contained definite information derived from the
Bombay Stock Exchange Directory about the financial
condition of Maharaja Shree Umaid Mills Ltd. during the
period 1965-70, which indicated that during this period, the
company had prospered and that the book value per equity
share had risen from Rs. 318.55 for the year ending 31-12-1965
to Rs. 401 for the year ending 31-12-1970, that the earning per
share rose from Rs. 8.37 per share to Rs. 44 per share and that
the dividend percentage had also risen from 2 per cent to 10
per cent for the same period, which falsified the claim of the
assessee and accordingly Notice under section 148 was upheld.
These facts are absent herein.
Shri Anil Singhal, Muzaffarnagar vs Ito, Muzaffarnagar on 4 October, 2017
In 'Anil Kumar Singhal vs. ITO', 33 taxman.com434
(Agra Trib) (SMC Bench), ITAT upheld the initiation of
proceedings under section 148 of the Act after having found
that after receipt of report from the Investigation Wing, the AO
had applied his mind to such information and had then issued
the notice to the assessee. No issue of non-application of mind
by the AO, however, stands raised in the present case.
