    <title>TPO order under s.92CA(3) invalid as one-day time-bar; statutory 60-day limit overrides departmental &#039;two months&#039; circular</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=92804</link>
    <description>The ITAT held that the TPO&#039;s order under s.92CA(3) is time-barred by one day and therefore invalid. The tribunal found the assessment limitation under s.153(1) expired on 31 Mar 2013, so the statutory 60-day cutoff for issuing an order under s.92CA(3A) lapsed on 29 Jan 2013; reliance on a departmental circular using the phrase &quot;two months&quot; could not supplant the statutory &quot;60 days&quot; calculation. Applying the statutory timeline strictly, the TPO&#039;s s.92CA order was barred by limitation and set aside, and the assessee&#039;s appeal was allowed.</description>
