Territorial jurisdiction over an income-tax appeal and a related cross-objection is ordinarily determined by the office location of the Assessing Officer who issued the assessment order, rather than the assessee's location or that of the appellate authority. Where the assessment order originated from the Chennai Assessing Officer, the Mumbai Bench lacked jurisdiction over both proceedings.
