Limitation for assessment under the amended timeline was upheld: the substituted second proviso to section 153(1) extended the time for passing the assessment order for AY 2020-21 to 30.09.2022, so an order dated 28.09.2022 was within time. In faceless assessment, service of a draft assessment order was held necessary only for an eligible assessee; for an ordinary assessee, disclosure through a show-cause notice satisfied the statute. The objection of denial of personal hearing failed because the notice permitted a video-conference hearing and no request was made. Merits-based objections involving disputed facts were left to the statutory appellate forum, and the writ petitions were dismissed with protection on limitation for appeals.
