ITAT allowed the assessee's appeal, invalidating the trust registration cancellation. The tribunal found critical legal defects in the Assessing Officer's (AO) reference, including: (1) retrospective application of Finance Act, 2022 provisions to AY 2021-22, (2) reliance on seized search materials without independent verification, and (3) drawing presumptions without providing the assessee an opportunity to rebut.
