Applying precedent distinguishing clerical errors from jurisdictional defects, the court held that an assessment framed in the name and PAN of an amalgamating non existent entity constitutes a substantive illegality and is void ab initio.

The tribunal's quashing of the final assessment was therefore sustained and the appeal dismissed.
