Section 263

The order passed by PCIT under section 263 was liable to be quashed as the same having been passed in the name of a non-existent entity which had already merged / amalgamated.

Revision under section 263 - Validity - Proceedings initiated in the name of non-existent entity -

Followed:CIT v. Aarcee Holdings Pvt. Ltd. dt. 10-9-2014.
