THE requisition issued by the IT Department under S. 132A of the IT Act, 1961, is under challenge on the ground that on the 'information' in possession of the IT authorities, they could not be said to have a 'reason to believe' that the assets which consisted of cash, raw silver and silver ornaments were not disclosed or would not be disclosed to the IT authorities.
