The order passed by Assessing Officer was neither erroneous nor prejudicial to the interest of revenue. The order passed by CIT is based on the change of opinion hence not sustainable in law.

Since Assessing Officer had not inquired about these facts in proceeding under section 143(3), hence, there is no question of change in opinion. Assessing Officer has not made any opinion on this issue. He pleaded that the order of the CIT is justified as the order of the Assessing Officer was not only erroneous but also prejudicial to the interest of revenue. 4. We have heard both the sides. The Assessing Officer made the order under section 143(3) which read as under :- The Return of Income was filed on 31.10.2005 declaring total income of Rs.87,46,659/-.

..... that the Assessing Officer has passed a summary order without looking into the issue of genuineness of transactions relating to sale and purchase of shares of G.R. Industries. It is clear from facts of the case that Assessing Officer has not applied his mind on this issue while passing order under section 143(3). This order is summary order. The relevant facts have not been looked into. In view of these facts, we uphold the order of CIT for directing Assessing Officer to make thorough examination and investigation on this issue. Considering these facts, we sustain the order of CIT and dismiss the assessee s appeal. 5. In the result, the appeal of the assessee is dismissed. Order pronounced in open court on this 6th day of January, 2012 .....
