Territorial jurisdiction defect rendered the assessment invalid where the assessee's case remained with the Mumbai Assessing Officer and no transfer order for the relevant year was shown. The Tribunal noted that the assessee had been assessed by Mumbai in the preceding and succeeding years, and that the Delhi Assessing Officer therefore lacked authority to frame the order.
