...., ld. CIT/DRs ORDER Through this batch of appeals, different assesses assail the correctness of separate orders passed by the Commissioners of Income-tax (CIT) u/s 263 of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (hereinafter also called 'the Act') in relation to the captioned assessment years.

But, where the intention of the assessee is to defraud the Revenue by either filing returns, after amalgamation, in the old name or otherwise, then the order passed in the old name is valid. H.
