Purposive interpretation of residential house exemption: unregistered purchase agreement alone does not defeat relief, but investment must be verified...
Assessment u/s 153C - The High court found procedural lapses in invoking Section 153C against the petitioner without concrete evidence of undisclosed transactions for the relevant assessment year. It highlighted the absence of incriminating material specific to the petitioner for the year in question, rendering the invocation of Section 153C unjustifiable. - Reassessment under Section 148: The court clarified that proceedings under Section 148, aimed at reassessing income believed to have escaped assessment, could continue provided they were based on substantive evidence and not merely on the procedural fallout of a search operation targeting a different entity.
