Search assessment and multiplex lease receipts: incriminating material limits additions, but commercial exploitation supported business income treatme...
In a limited scrutiny assessment selected through CASS, the Assessing Officer is confined to the specific issues for which scrutiny was initiated. Enquiry into matters outside those issues is permissible only after conversion into complete scrutiny with the prescribed approval.

The assessee's appeal was allowed.
