In view of the above facts, the AO s order is erroneous and prejudicial to the interest of revenue and is accordingly set aside u/s 263 of the IT Act, 1961. 05. Mr. Saha, learned counsel for the assessee contends, and rightly so, that this notice was totally illegal since the Commissioner of Income Tax had actually set aside the order of the Assessing Officer even before giving notice to the assessee. 06.
