Rectification under section 154 is narrowly confined; choose remedial measures carefully to protect revenue and invoke section 263 where appropriate.
Rectification under section 154 is confined to mistakes apparent from the record and must not be used where the error relies on extraneous evidence or extensive reasoning. Reopening under section 147(b) is susceptible if based only on change of opinion; audit scrutiny notes as "information" are legally contested. Intervention under section 263 is recommended where assessments are unappealed and significant tax is involved. ITOs should assess remedial options carefully, consult IACs, and avoid measures that risk loss of revenue.
