Service of notice - time limitation - Escaped assessment of tax - escaped turnover - Even according to the respondent, the inspection took place in the year 2015; nothing stopped the respondent from taking action for assessing the escaped turnover immediately thereafter. Even if the respondent had taken action in the year 2016-2017 that would have been within the limitation period.
