Once notice u/s 143(2) issued the validity of assessment u/s 143(1) is lost. It does not matter when the 143(1) is issued and received by you. 143(1) is passed to keep on records that your return has been processed and if 143(2) is issued this means your case is under scrutiny and the order shall be passed u/s 143(3)
