The HC held that both the JAO and the FAO possess concurrent jurisdiction to initiate reassessment proceedings under s.148, consistent with statutory mandate in s.151A; co-ordinate bench precedent in the same territorial jurisdiction remains binding notwithstanding an appeal pending before the apex court, subject to the limited carve-out permitting Revenue to continue proceedings with protective directions in prior litigations.
