Validity of assessments framed under s.153A turned on whether mandatory approval under s.153D was granted with due application of mind. Where a single, joint approval was accorded for seven assessment years and the record did not evidence any meaningful interaction or scrutiny by the approving authority of the draft orders, the approval was held to be mechanical, perfunctory, and merely ritualistic, failing the statutory safeguard under s.153D.
