Interplay between section 144C and section 153 requires determination of limitation for passing final assessment orders by reference to both provisions construed together; this mutual and harmonious construction was applied to hold that final assessment orders rendered beyond the combined time limits are barred by limitation and therefore quashed. An interim stay of a precedent does not negate its ratio decidendi, but reliance in the instant case was placed on an unstayed High Court decision; accordingly the appeal was heard and the Departments preliminary objection rejected, resulting in annulment of time-barred assessment orders.
