Validity of special audit u/s 142(2A) - The Jharkhand High Court upheld the orders for a special audit of the petitioner’s accounts for the assessment years 2020-21 and 2022-23. The court found that the discrepancies in the petitioner’s accounts justified the special audit and that the statutory requirements for ordering such an audit were met.

The petitioner’s writ petitions were dismissed, with the court providing additional time for the audit and specific directions to ensure a fair audit process.
