The assessee submitted to the AO that since the notice U\/Sec.148 of the Act was issued by the Assessing Officer after the specified dated i.e 31.03.2021 and in view of above\u00a0 BHC\u00a0 which is binding under the <em>\u201cprinciple of judicial precedence\u201d, <\/em>it is submitted that the notice u\/s 148(1) of the Act issued in the present case of the assessee may kindly be quashed in toto and the preset reassessment proceedings be withdrawn as <em>non-est<\/em> and the return be consigned to records as filed.
