Assessing Officer initiated proceedings under section 147 solely on the basis of incriminating material seized during a search of a third party, but where information pertains to a person other than the searched party the proper statutory route is assessment under section 153C; therefore the AO lacked jurisdiction to proceed under section 147 and the appellate authority correctly quashed the 147 proceedings.
