2024 (3) TMI 778 - MADRAS HIGH COURTValidity of assessment orders pertaining to specific assessment years - allegation is that petitioner had not produced project wise details of work done in every financial year - concrete evidence to prove the nature of business carried on by the petitioner or not - HELD THAT:- On examining the impugned assessment orders, it is noticeable that the reply submitted by the petitioner on several dates were referred to therein. All the documents submitted by the petitioner, such as purchase documents, Government approvals, copies of sale deeds to customers, documents relating to development fees paid to the Government and the statement relating to purchase of goods were taken into account. It is evident that the assessing officer engaged with the evidence placed on record by the petitioner and entered findings after appraising such evidence. It cannot be said that a reasonable opportunity was not provided to the petitioner and that the order is a consequence of non application of mind. In these circumstances, no case is made out to warrant interference in exercise of discretionary jurisdiction. The appropriate recourse for the petitioner would be to carry these assessment orders in appeal before the appellate authority. These writ petitions were filed in January 2024 after orders were issued on the rectification petitions on 05.01.2024. In these circumstances, if appeals are presented by the petitioner within a period of 15 days from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, the appellate authority is directed to consider and dispose of the same on merits without going into the question of limitation. Petition disposed off.
