The Petitioner (an anonymized corporate assessee) moved the HC challenging territorial jurisdiction and validity of reopening under s.148 of the IT Act read with the extended limitation provisions under TOLA; the Court held that, following relocation of the Petitioner's registered office to Mumbai and substantial events arising within the HC's territory, a substantial part of the cause of action arose within the HC's jurisdiction under Art.226(2), rejecting the forum conveniens objection.
