Assessing Officer definition revised to align Gift-tax administration with Income-tax Act definitions and jurisdictional cross references. Amendment to section 2 revises Gift-tax Act definitions by omitting specified clauses, substituting corporate and partnership definitions to adopt the meanings in section 2 of the Income-tax Act, and inserting a new definition of Assessing Officer as the Assistant Commissioner or Income-tax Officer vested with jurisdiction by directions or orders under the Income-tax Act (including Deputies directed to exercise Assessing Officer functions). It also cross-references a list of tax-official titles so they bear the meanings assigned under section 2 of the Income-tax Act.
