Validity of reopening of assessment - Validity of multiple notices issued under various sections of the Income Tax Act, particularly targeting the application of Section 50C to a buyer rather than a seller. - Section 50C applies only to sellers and not buyers. It was held that there was a non-application of mind in issuing the order under Section 148A(d), as the authorities failed to recognize this distinction.
