2017 (12) TMI 754 - SC ORDER
Validity of assessment against non existent company - assessment in the name of a company which had been amalgamated and had been dissolved with the said amalgamating company - Held that:- No reason to interfere with the impugned judgment(s) passed by the High Court. In view of this, we find no merit in the appeals and special leave petitions.
HC has held [2011 (8) TMI 544 - DELHI HIGH COURT] provisions of Section 292B of the Act are not applicable in such a case. The framing of assessment against a non-existing entity/person goes to the root of the matter which is not a procedural irregularity but a jurisdictional defect as there cannot be any assessment against a dead person. - Decided in favour of assessee.
