    <title>Search-related reassessment limitation: HC holds the search assessment year counts in the ten-year block, making the notice time-barred.</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=98569</link>
    <description>For search-related reassessment, the HC held that the six-year block under section 153A and the extended ten-year block under Explanation 1 use different computation methods, and the language of the ten-year provision requires the search assessment year to be included as the first year in the reckoning. On that construction, a search conducted in FY 2023-24 made AY 2024-25 the first year and AY 2015-16 the tenth year, so AY 2014-15 fell outside the permissible period. The Court followed its earlier view and rejected the Revenue&#039;s contrary interpretation, quashing the section 148 notice for AY 2014-15 as time-barred.</description>
