The ITAT set aside the CPC, Bengaluru intimation under s.143(1) of the Act, holding that the centralized adjustment restricting the assessee's claim of exemption under s.10(10AA) was invalid for failure to comply with the mandatory first proviso to s.143(1)(a). The Tribunal held that prior written or electronic intimation specifying the proposed adjustment and affording the assessee a 30-day opportunity to respond is a statutory precondition and an essential element of audi alteram partem.
