Search assessment regime establishes exclusive procedure for block-period income, abatement and revival rules, and separate regular-income treatment.
Clause 292 creates an exclusive special procedure for block-period assessments triggered by search or requisition, mandating automatic abatement of all pending assessments and related references or orders for relevant tax years, requiring completion of earlier search assessments before subsequent ones (with minimum extensions where needed), prescribing separate treatment of regular income for the year of the last search, providing revival of abated proceedings if the special assessment is annulled, and standardising taxation of block-period income by cross-reference to the Bill's charging provision.
