Notice for re-assessment quashed by Hon'ble HC, Bombay as the Assessee fully, truly disclosed all material facts


Quick Summary
The Bombay High Court has quashed a re-assessment notice issued to M/s Ananta Landmark Pvt. Ltd. The court ruled that for an assessment to be reopened after four years, there must be a failure by the assessee to disclose all material facts. In this case, the court found that the assessee had indeed fully and truly disclosed all necessary information. Therefore, the re-opening was based on a mere change of opinion by the Assessing Officer, not on any omission by the taxpayer.
