Delhi High Court held that concluded and closed assessments cannot be reopened merely on suspicion. Accordingly, reopening of assessment is liable to be quashed since there is no tangible material that has a live nexus to reason to believe that the income has escaped assessment.
Under section 151(ii), where the alleged escaped income was more than Rs. 50 lakh, and where more than three years have passed since the relevant assessment year require approval from a higher-level authority.

By returning the loan, the assessee has only utilised the loan for the purpose of business and repaid the same. Merely because some operator has managed the affairs and all the transactions cannot be labelled as non-genuine.
The Petitioner prayed for a direction upon the respondents not to proceed further on the basis of the notice u/s. 148 of the Act of 1961 and drop the proceedings after considering the objection dated 21.02.2022. Petitioner also prayed for an interim stay of the impugned notice.
Addition made under Section 69A based only on statements and a pen drive that were never tested or corroborated was not justified as such evidence could not be treated as credible unless the taxpayer was confronted with it and given an opportunity to respond.
Since the notice was issued under Section 148 in the name of a non-existing entity, despite the department having been intimated about the amalgamation much earlier, the impugned notice under Section 148 was null and void. Consequently, the reassessment order passed based on this invalid notice was quashed.
