The AO issued notices under Section 148A(b) and 148A(d) based on these allegations.Contention and Explanation:The AO's contentions regarding the petitioner's transactions with RCI were outlined in the notices and order.

The petitioner argues that approvals were obtained before the order was passed, while the respondents defend the approval process.
