Section 143(1) IT Act | CPC Cannot Reclassify Assessee Status Without Documentary Proof: ITAT Ahmedabad

ITAT Ahmedabad rules that the Central Processing Centre (CPC) cannot unilaterally reclassify an assessee's status from an Association of Persons (AOP) to a cooperative society under Section 143(1) of the Income Tax Act without documentary evidence. The ruling reinforces that status reclassification requires proof, protecting assessees from arbitrary tax demands.
