    <title>Notice under section 143(2) invalid where notice sent to address not in ITR despite assessee giving correct address</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=93349</link>
    <description>ITAT allowed the assessee&#039;s appeal, holding that notices issued under section 143(2) on an address not reflected in the ITR were invalid where the assessee had provided and the AO had acknowledged the correct address; reliance by the lower authority on addresses from MCA or PAN records could not supplant a specifically intimated last known address. The Tribunal held that the presumption of service by substituted methods requires that the notice be sent to the last known correct address communicated to the AO, and distinguished the precedent relied upon by the CIT(A) as inapplicable on the facts. Consequently the assessment communication founded on service at the incorrect address was set aside.</description>
