The Assessee requested condonation of the delay, stating unawareness of the appeal process. The Tribunal, after hearing both sides, decided to condone the delay to allow the Assessee to present its case.Issue 2: Review of the assessment orderThe Assessee contended that the Principal Commissioner erred in not specifying the cancellation of earlier orders while passing the second order under section 143(3) read with 263 of the Act. The Principal Commissioner had set aside the assessment order for verification of specific issues related to large expenses, interest expenses, investments, sales turnover, and related party transactions.Issue 3: Investment scrutinyThe Principal Commissioner issued a notice for discrepancies in the assessment order regarding an investment of Rs. 1,20,00,000 in unlisted equities. The Assessee claimed the investment was made in a previous financial year and provided details, which were not considered by the Assessing Officer. The Tribunal found no supporting documents for the claim and upheld the validity of invoking section 263 due to the erroneous nature of the assessment order.In conclusion, the Tribunal dismissed the appeal, upholding the order of the Principal Commissioner under section 263 as valid, considering the assessment order to be prejudicial to the interest of the Revenue.
