Reopening of assessment u/s 147 - Non consideration reply of assessee u/s 148A - Since the impugned order under Section 148A(d) has been passed on 5th April, 2022 i.e. after receipt of the detailed reply of the petitioner dated 4th April, 2022, the Assessing Officer should have considered the same as it was available on record. By not considering the reply of the petitioner dated 4th April, 2022, the mandate of Section 148A(c) has been violated as it casts a duty on the Assessing Officer, by using the expression ‘shall’ to consider the reply of the petitioner/assessee in response to the notice under Section 148A(b) before making an order under Section 148A(d). - HC
