In the assessment order of my client hon.assessing officer has made addition on the base of bank transaction,property purchase transaction and mcx transaction. but he has not mentioned any section of income tax act under which he is making addition in income. Is there any provision for it to mention section is compulsory? Is not this order is bad in law ? Please mentioned any judgments for it.

i would not say bad in law but definitely erroneous and incomplete. the AO is required to provide the reasons for additions and specific sections. you can appeal against the same.

Is there any article in the constitution of India which directs it is compulsory to mention section and law? or in the Civil procedure code?

You may refer ITAT decision in the ITA No. 399/Del/2017 dated 18.07.2018 in the case of Smt. Sudha Loyalka, New Delhi vs Ito, New Delhi. This may be of help.
