Absence of a Document Identification Number in the assessment order was treated as an inherent defect going to the validity of the order itself, and the High Court set it aside on that ground, following earlier decisions. The matter was remanded to the Assessing Officer for fresh consideration after granting the assessee an opportunity of hearing.
