The petitioner is a stock broking entity registered with SEBI and an assessee before the respondent Department, more particularly, on the file of the Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax, Corporate Circle 1(1), Chennai, the 3rd respondent herein. The petitioner was issued with a notice dated 23.02.2016 calling upon them to file their reply under section 127(2) of the Income Tax Act for the proposed centralisation of the group case of Radford Group with Mumbai.
