% 14.10.2015 This writ petition has been filed as a sequel to an earlier writ petition being WP(C) 6900/2013. In that writ petition, an order was passed on 24.02.2014, which is to the following effect:- "We are informed by the Revenue that the complaint/Tax Evasion Petition which is the subject matter of this petition was enquired into and that the assessee concerned has been issued with a notice under Section 148 for reopening assessment sometime in December 2013. Learned counsel relies upon the letter of the concerned Income Tax Officer dated 21/24.02.2014. In view of this development, the Court is of the opinion that no further orders are called for. W.P.(C) 6900/2013 is accordingly disposed off in the above terms."

Thereafter, the Income Tax Authorities have proceeded further with the Section 148 notices for re-opening the assessments. The learned counsel appearing on behalf of the revenue authorities has handed over letters which have been received with regard to the

assessment /re-assessment proceedings which are the subject matter of this writ petition. It has been indicated that the assessment has been completed insofar as the assessment years 2007-08 and 2008-09 are concerned. With regard to the subsequent assessment years from the assessment years 2009-10 to 2013-14, the assessment is under progress. As the revenue authorities are proceeding with the assessment/re-assessment, no directions are needed in this writ petition.

The writ petition stands disposed of.
