2017 (4) TMI 658 - AT - Income TaxReopening of assessment - assessment of loss - Held that:- AO has not applied his mind so as to come to an independent conclusion that he has reason to believe that income has escaped during the year. In our considered view the reasons are vague and are not based on any tangible material as well as are not acceptable in the eyes of law. The AO has mechanically issued notice u/s. 148 of the I.T. Act, 1961 on the basis of information allegedly received by him from the Directorate of Income Tax (Inv.), New Delhi. Thus the reopening in the case of the assessee for the asstt. Year in dispute is bad in law and deserves to be quashed. - Decided in favour of assessee
