For reassessment beyond three years, the Tribunal held that the recorded reasons must expressly satisfy the jurisdictional conditions in the proviso to section 148 and section 149(1)(b); vague references to an asset or books were insufficient, so the notices and consequential reassessments were void. It also held that material produced by a third person in response to a post-search summons under section 131 could not be treated as search material for Explanation 2 to section 148, and the Department had to follow section 148A if it wanted to rely on it. On the merits, blanket addition of two zeroes to all cash-book entries was rejected, though 16% profit estimation on supported unaccounted receipts was upheld; additions for land-development cash payments were sustained where corroborated, but an unsigned receipt issue was remitted for verification.
