Centralization of the cases - Transfer of case from one tribunal to another i.e from ITAT Bangalore and ITAT Mumbai - It is not a case before any AO. Petitioner may have expressed no objection to transfer of assessment jurisdiction from the AO at Bangalore to the AO at Mumbai after assessment for the assessment years covered by the search period, but that cannot be used to non-suit the petitioner in his challenge to transfer of appeals from one Bench of the Tribunal to another Bench in a different State and in a different Zone. The two are altogether different and have no nexus with each other. So, the preliminary objection raised on behalf of the respondents on this count has to fail. - HC
