Validity of Assessment u/s 153C - The period of six years would have to be reckoned with respect to the date of recording of satisfaction note, not the date of search. The court concluded that assessments made for AY 2012-13 u/s 144 r.w.s. 142(1), consequent to the satisfaction note recorded on 18.11.2013 (AY 2014-15), ought to have been made u/s 153C.
