Bombay High Court held that issue of reopening of assessment has to be tested only on the basis of the reasons recorded, which reasons can neither be improved upon nor substituted by an affidavit or oral submissions.
If there is no valid service of notice under section 148, the reassessment proceedings are null and void. service of notice under section 148 is a condition precedent for making reassessment or re-computation under section 147 of the Act.
