Section 270AA gives finality where an assessee accepts the assessment without appeal and secures immunity from penalty and prosecution; a later section 154 rectification cannot be used to substantially rewrite the assessment or change its tax consequence, so the rectification order was without jurisdiction.

The Tribunal quashed both the rectification order and the appellate order affirming it.
