....see preferred appeal before Ld.CIT(A), who after considering the submissions, dismissed the appeal of the assessee. 5. Aggrieved against the order of Ld.CIT(A), the assessee is in appeal before this Tribunal. 6. At the outset, Ld. Counsel for the assessee submitted that the re-opening of the assessment is ex-facie, illegal and unjustified. He contended that the AO has wrongly stated that the assessee has not filed return of income. He drew my attention to the Paper Book to buttress the contention that the return was duly filed by the assessee therefore, there was complete non-application of mind by the authorities below and further the notice u/s 148 of the Act was received by the assessee. Even the reasons recorded by the AO were not sup....

.... 2010- 11 declaring the income of Rs.1,58,210/-. The return is filed under PAN: BFUPS2317J on 24.03.2011. However, the assessment is completed in the PAN: AWJPS1941H. However the address and name of the appellant in the assessment order as well as return of income is same. When these facts were asked from the Ld. AR, he stated that both the PAN are of the appellant and new PAN is allotted due to modification applied by the appellant himself. It is further submitted that the earlier PAN which is appearing in the assessment order has been surrendered by way of letter to the AO. 5.1. I have examined the finding of the AO and submission of the appellant. The information regarding bank account in ICICI Bank with the PAN: AWJPS1941H, is receive....

....I Bank account. This fact of having two PAN was not brought to knowledge of the AO. Therefore the finding of the AO in assessment order is correct. The Ld. AR's argument regarding initiation of the proceeding u/s 147 on the basis that no independent reason recorded by the AO, does not carry much weight in view of the various decisions by the Hon'ble Court. The AO was in possession of definite information of cash deposit in the bank account of appellant at the time of recording reason for reopening of the case u/s 147 and on this basis the case of the appellant is considered for reopening u/s 147 of the Act. Therefore this ground of appeal is dismissed. 5.2. In view of the above facts and discussion, I am of the view that AO has correctly ....

In the result, the appeal of the assessee is allowed. ITA No.7163/Del/2019 [Assessment Year : 2010-11] 11.
