We also find that the Assessing Officer while accepting the documents submitted by the Ld. AR, has not conducted any specific enquiry as to the facts of thecase. There is no iota of evidence brought on record by the Assessing Officer justifying that there was mistake committed by the assessee vis-à-vis his filing of original as well as revised return of income. The Ld. AR of the assessee also argued that the view taken by the Assessing Officer may not be a proper one as per the Ld. Pr. Commissioner of Income Tax is concerned nonetheless, it is definitely an appropriate view. We do not agree with the contention of the Ld. AR since taking a view should be backed by reasons and that reasons should be demonstrated in the order itself with evidences brought on record and independent enquiry conducted. In thiscase, the Assessing Officer has only done the work of extraction of submissions of the Ld. AR and nothing else and therefore, in fact the Assessing Officer has not formed any view. When no view has been taken, no enquiry has been conducted, when no reasons on facts has been placed on record, the order of assessment is bound to be erroneous in so far as prejudicial to the interest of the revenue.
