Under the facts and circumstances of the case, the Ld.AO has grossly erred in making an addition of Rs.30,84,043/- to the returned income of the assessee as income from undisclosed sources which is without any evidence, arbitrary, based on surmise and conjectures, without application of mind and against the facts of the case. 2. Without prejudice to the ground of appeal no.1, and under the facts and circumstances of the case, the assessment order u/s 147 passed by the Ld.AO is invalid and bad at law as the reopening of assessment is based on incomplete and improper reasons to believe. 3.

He further submitted that a notice u/s 148 was not served on the assessee and hence the reassessment is bad in law. He contended that the Assessing Officer has not obtained the approval of the JCIT as prescribed u/s 151(2) of the Act before the reopening of assessments. 4.1. On merits he submits that the assessee has accounted for all the receipts from M/s Komori Corporation, Japan and that there is no undisclosed income. He submits that the assessee has furnished complete records before the Assessing Officer. He submits that the only information that the Assessing Officer had against the assessee, was .....

Copies of the same on sample basis are enclosed on page no.23 to 27 of the paper book; vi. Invoices issued to M/s Komori Corporation during the relevant year. Copies of the same on sample basis are enclosed on page no.28 to 29 of the paper book. 4.2.

The Revenue has not demonstrated that this provision of law has been complied with. On this sole ground the reopening has to be quashed as bad in law. The assessee submits that the notice u/s 148 has not been served on him. A perusal of the assessment orders demonstrate that the Assessing Officer claims to have issued the notice to the assessee that the fact of service is not recorded. The assessee group participated in the reopening proceedings. Under the circumstances S.292BB applies and this ground of the assessee is not sustainable. 8.

The Revenue has not been able to specifically point out as to which is the particular remittance made by M/s Komori Corporation, which has not been accounted for by the assessee.
