Refund entitlement not triggered by assessment cancellation; fresh reassessment determines tax liability and refund eligibility. Cancellation of an assessment by the Commissioner does not by itself create a right to refund; refund arises only when excess tax payment is established. Cancellation for reframing indicates tax liability remains to be determined in a fresh assessment, and there is no obligation to repay tax solely because the original assessment was set aside. Fresh assessments must be completed within the statutory reassessment period and authorities are directed to expedite and monitor completion.
