    <title>Remand under s.254 limits fresh assessment to s.153(2A) one-year period; belated assessment held time-barred and annulled</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=92703</link>
    <description>ITAT held that on remand after an order under s.254, the A.O. could only pass a fresh assessment pursuant to s.153(2A) within one year from the end of the financial year in which the s.254 order was made; where the Tribunal&#039;s s.254 order dated 31/08/2012 thus required finalisation by 31/03/2014, the impugned final assessment issued thereafter was time-barred. Applying the statutory construction that &quot;received&quot; equates to &quot;having knowledge,&quot; the Tribunal set aside the belated assessment as invalid for breach of limitation. The taxpayer&#039;s appeal was therefore partly allowed and the assessment annulled to the extent time-barred.</description>
