FAQ :

The main issue was whether the assessment order under Section 153C was valid, particularly concerning share application money received from family members and relatives of directors.

The assessee contended that the assessment order was bad in law and should be quashed because the search operation was unlawful and no incriminating material belonging to the assessee was found.

The Income Tax Appellate Tribunal allowed all the appeals filed by the assessee for statistical purposes.

The search and seizure operation was initiated on 11.04.2011.

Section 132 (search and seizure) and Section 153C (assessment in case of search of a person other than the assessee) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 were relevant.
