Mis-declaration and Concealment: confiscation affirmed, transaction value re-determined and mandatory penalty sustained; redemption allowed on payment...
A jurisdictional objection going to the root of assessment authority was allowed as an additional ground because it raised a pure question of law on admitted facts. Since no order transferring jurisdiction under Section 127 had been passed, transfer from one Assessing Officer to another could not be presumed and the assessment proceedings were rendered without valid authority. The Tribunal therefore admitted the additional ground and quashed the assessment as void for lack of jurisdiction.
