..... d through ITBA portal. (PB Page No. 21 to 25). (v) When we took the grounds of appeal before the Ld.

We got certified copy from the Ld. A.O. of the notice u/s 143(2) of Income Tax Act. Copy of Notice enclosed (PB Page No. 27) But surprisingly there is no dispatch no. on the notice, it is type written prepared manually and signature is also made of son of assessee, which we denied that the signature of son of assessee Sh. Rishab Jain. (vi) That a show cause notice has been issued by Ld A.O. on 24.12.2018 from ITBA portal then why notice u/s 143(2) dt 24.12.2018 has not been generate from the portal. So it is very much clear that notice u/s 143(2) has not been generated validly. (vii) That the date of receipt of notice is also not mentioned on so called notice u/s 143(2) of IT Act.

..... there is a wide gap in land rate as given by Registered Valuer and actual sale instances cited by the DVO. The Registered Valuer had simply stated in the Valuation Report that the rate of land as on 01-04-1981 is ₹ 1400/- per sq. yard based on local survey. No sale instance is quoted to arrive at such rate by Registered Valuer. Thus Registered Valuer s valuation of land @ ₹ 1400/- per square yard is not based on any independent supporting document. It is simply mentioned in the valuation report that rate is based on local survey. However, what evidences were gathered in the survey to arrive at such rate is not provided.

The assessee relied on sale instances which are from far away areas from the location of concerned property. Keeping all these relevant facts in view, the rate adopted by ITAT, Jaipur bench in first round at ₹ 300/- per sq. yard is quite fair and reasonable. Hence, the Bench directs to adopt the fair market value @ ₹ 300/- per sq. yard as on 01-04-1981 .....
