Impugned notice u/s 148A(b) of the Income Tax Act quashed. HC held that issuing notice u/s 148 to a deceased assessee instead of legal heir u/s 159(2)(b) is invalid and a condition precedent for reopening assessment. Section 159 applies when proceedings initiated during assessee's lifetime, not when assessee died before notice. Relying on Sumit Balkrishna Gupta and Dharamraj, HC ruled Section 292B also inapplicable in such cases. Writ petition allowed.
