2020 (5) TMI 209 - AT - Income TaxRevision u/s 263 - Addition u/s 68 - HELD THAT:- Action/view taken by the AO after enquiry made by him as per the direction of the Ld. Pr. CIT in the set aside proceedings dated 10.06.2016 pursuant to which the AO has reassessed the assessee after inquiry and accepted the share capital and premium collected by assessee is a plausible view and cannot be held to be unsustainable view in facts or law, therefore, the impugned action of the Ld. Pr. CIT to interfere with the reassessment order of the AO, is without jurisdiction and liable to be quashed. We are of the considered opinion that AO’s action (reassessment) pursuant to the first revisional order of Ld. Pr. CIT dated 10.06.2016, to accept the share capital and premium as a possible view in facts and law as per the ratio laid by the Hon’ble Supreme Court in Malabar Industrial Co. Ltd. Vs. CIT [2000 (2) TMI 10 - SUPREME COURT]. AO’s action/reassessment order cannot be termed as erroneous and prejudicial to the interest of the Revenue. Therefore, the condition precedent for usurping revisional jurisdiction u/s. 263 of the Act is absent and, therefore, the Ld. Pr. CIT lacked jurisdiction to assume second time revisional jurisdiction u/s. 263 of the Act. Appeal of the assessee is allowed
