The assessee in reply to a notice under Section 22 (2), Income-tax Act had filed his return, but he had not mentioned the status in which the return was being filed, nor had he given the date on which he had filed his return. The form prescribed in the Indian Income-tax Act requires these facts to be also mentioned in the return that is to be filed by an assessee. The Income-tax Officer, however, overlooked the defects and proceeded to complete the assessment. In the course of the assessment proceedings he discovered certain deliberate omissions made in the account books and he, therefore, issued a notice to the assessee to show cause why penalty under Section 28 (1) be not imposed on hi...
