The HC set aside proceedings initiated under sections 148A and 148, holding the notices invalid because they were not issued through the statutorily mandated faceless mechanism introduced by the Finance Act, 2021 and Notification dated 29.03.2022 read with section 151A; the issuance by the territorial AO rendered the reassessment jurisdictionally infirm.
