A notice under section 143(2) issued by an Income-tax Officer without pecuniary jurisdiction was held invalid because the assessee's returned income placed the case within the jurisdiction of the AC/DC under CBDT Instruction No. 1/2011.

The consequential assessment was therefore quashed, and the Revenue's appeal became infructuous.
