10 October 2009 there is no such provision for set off of demand of one assessee from refund of another assessee in any curcumtances irresseptive of fact what relation exists between both assessee.

10 October 2009 Generally the A.O. make such adjustments where the assessees are close relatives. If the assessee requests and consented for such adjustment then it can be done by the A.O. But without his consent no such adjustment can be carried out.
