Validity of a reference to the Transfer Pricing Officer was assessed on limitation grounds: the proviso extending assessment time for notices issued on or after 01.04.2019 gave a twelvemonth period, so a notice served 24.02.2020 required completion by 31.03.2021; tolling under pandemic ordinances extended that to 30.06.2021.
