The final assessment order passed by the Assessing Officer u/s 147 read with Section 144C(13) for the Assessment Year 2016-17 is quashed as barred by limitation. Except in cases of reference to the Transfer Pricing Officer, the extended time limit of 12 months for completion of assessment is not available in a case of Non-Resident assessment, even though covered u/s 144C of the Act. As per Section 153(4), the extended time limit of 12 months is not available for Non-Residents. The Assessing Officer ought to have completed the assessment within one year from the end of the financial year in which notice u/s 148 was served, as per Section 153(2). Considering the notice u/s 148 was served in April 2021, the time limit for completing the assessment u/s 147 was available up to 31.03.2023. Hence, the final assessment order dated 08.01.2024 is clearly barred by limitation and liable to be quashed.
