Electronic material used in search assessments must be shown to be genuine, properly preserved, and supported by a reliable chain of custody; the Tribunal treated the Revenue's failure to record complete device particulars, hash values, and proper certification of later extraction as fatal to reliance on SMS, WhatsApp images, and software screenshots. It also held that approval under section 153D is a statutory safeguard requiring conscious application of mind to each assessment year, not a mechanical signature.
