Revisional power over an assessment requires the order to be both erroneous and prejudicial to the Revenue; it cannot be used to replace a legally plausible view already taken after inquiry. Here, the Assessing Officer examined alleged bogus purchases and made an addition of 12.5%, so the dispute was only over the quantum and manner of addition, not a lack of inquiry. As no illegality was shown in the assessment view, revision under Section 263 was not available, and the Tribunal's setting aside of the revisional order was upheld.
