———–

7 22-1-2011 These appeals are admitted for hearing on the

following questions of law ;

(1) Whether the view taken by the learned Tribunal
2

that in the context of Section 147 of the Income Tax Act it is

enough if some materials existed to enable the Assessing

Officer to form reason to believe that any income chargeable

to tax has escaped assessment and subsequent developments

showing those the reasons to be without any basis cannot be

looked into, is in accordance with law or not.

(2) Whether in the facts of the case the Assessing

Officer was justified in estimating income at the rate of 20%

of gross turnover and whether the Tribunal was justified in

accepting such estimate in preference to estimate at the rate of

8% made by the Commissioner of Income Tax ( Appeals ).

(3) Whether interest has been determined rightly on

the basis of re-assessed income and whether it should have

been only on the basis of original assessed income.
