An assessing officer must not treat the value adopted by the registering/stamp valuation authority as deemed sale consideration under Section 50C without referring the matter to the departmental Valuation Officer/Valuation Cell to determine fair market value; where the assessee disputed the adopted value and did not participate, the AO should still use the statutory valuation machinery and afford the assessee a reasonable opportunity to be heard and to produce fresh documentary evidence.
