2016 (12) TMI 1901 - ITAT MUMBAIRevision u/s 263 - validity of assessment was framed u/s 143(3) - HELD THAT:- As in Tribunals order [2016 (12) TMI 863 - ITAT MUMBAI] whereby the order of CIT-8, Mumbai for the A.Y. 2006-07 was quashed stating the record of proposal to take action by the AO u/s 154 of the Act was before the CIT before issuing notice u/s 263 and hence the order of the AO cannot be termed as erroneous so far as prejudicial to the interest of Revenue as the word ‘records’ used in Section 263 of the Act shall also contemplate including the record pertaining to proceedings u/s 154 arising subsequently out of the assessment order passed by the AO u/s 143(3) of the Act and such record was before ld CIT before he issued notice u/s 263 on 11.03.2011. Thus, in our considered view, the assessment order dated 23.12.2008 passed by the A.O. u/s 143(3) of the Act is neither erroneous nor it is prejudicial to the interest of Revenue, and the CIT has not correctly invoked the provisions of section 263 hence, the order of the CIT in our considered view is not sustainable in law and is hereby ordered to be quashed. Assessee stated that the consequential assessment framed u/s 143(3) r. w. s. 263 dated 30-08-2011 will not survive and accordingly, the order of CIT(A) will not survive. We find from the above that the Tribunal has quashed the revision order of CIT-8, Mumbai dated 30-03-2011 and once the basic order is quashed, the consequential orders will not survive. Accordingly, we set aside the orders of the lower authorities and allow the appeal of the assessee.
