Assessing Officer's request for 2009-10 documents is invalid due to missed deadline under Section 143(2). A client received a notice under section 142(1) for the assessment year 2009-10, requesting financial documents, although no notice under section 143(2) was received by the deadline of September 30, 2010. The query was whether the Assessing Officer (AO) can request these documents for the assessment year 2009-10 or 2010-11. The response clarified that the AO cannot request documents for 2009-10 if the notice was not issued by the deadline, making it time-barred. However, the AO can request documents for 2010-11 if the notice is issued before September 30, 2011. (AI Summary)
