Therefore, this issue was also examined by the learned AO during the assessment proceedings. The issue remains that the PCIT while passing the order has stated that assessee did not comply with date of hearing on 20th February, 2020 and therefore, order was passed without considering the explanation of the assessee. We find that assessee has sent email on 19th March, 2020 explaining the reasons that on account of provision of Section 263 cannot be exercised for the impugned assessment year. However, this explanation was not considered by the learned PCIT though order u/s 263 was passed on 24 .....

..... as on 01.04.2013, assessee took opening work in progress as Rs. nil and closing stock of ₹ 32,667/- for Assessment Year 2014-15. Therefore, there is a difference of ₹ 83,63,359/- suppressing the work in progress for Assessment Year 2015-16 therefore, the learned PCIT was of the view that the learned assessing Officer did not confront the assessee with above discrepancy but overlooked it . b.

..... ct. We find that issue of suppression of the work in progress was not at all part of the limited scrutiny scope before the Assessing Officer. Despite that the learned Assessing Officer examined the same and allowed the claim of the assessee. Therefore, now the issue arises whether the learned PCIT was within his powers to invoke the provisions of Section 263 of the Act on the issues which were not part of the examination before the learned Assessing Officer on the limited scrutiny, irrespective of the fact whether the ld AO examined it or not. We are of the view that if the case of the assessee is selected for limited scrutiny, The Assessing Officer could have inquired only on the issues for which were part of The Limited scrutiny reasons. .....
