Where CBDT pecuniary-jurisdiction instructions allocate an assessee's case to an ITO, a scrutiny notice issued by an ACIT without a prior transfer order is beyond that officer's jurisdiction.

Proper allocation and transfer of jurisdiction are therefore essential to the validity of income-tax assessment proceedings.
