Allowing the petition the Court held that all relevant material in respect of employee costs reimbursed to overseas subsidiaries furnished in the course of original assessment proceedings. Once a query is raised during the assessment proceedings and the assessee has furnished a reply thereto, it implies that the query so raised was a subject matter of consideration of the assessing authority. It is not an immutable rule that an assessment order should contain reference or discussion on such query. Reassessment notice is not valid. Relied on Aroni Commercials Ltd. v. Dy.
