Protective additions based on seized books were set aside where corresponding substantive assessments against a third party were quashed for lack of jurisdiction and the assessing authorities had not independently examined seized material or the assessee's statements; matters remitted to the AO for fresh adjudication. The limitation challenge failed because contemporaneous records showed exchange-of-information references bringing Explanation 1(x) to section 153 into play, so the assessment was within the extended period.
