Under the substituted reassessment regime effective from 1 April 2021, issuance of a notice under section 148 and an order under section 148A(d) required prior approval from the specified authority in section 151. Where more than three years had elapsed from the end of the relevant assessment year, approval had to come from the higher authority identified in section 151(ii); approval by a Principal Commissioner was insufficient.
