For reassessment notices issued more than three years after the end of the relevant assessment year, section 151(ii) requires approval from the statutorily specified authority rather than the Principal Commissioner. The notes state that the later proviso to section 151, effective from 1 April 2023 and allowing exclusion of time permitted for a reply under section 148A(b), operates prospectively and does not validate an earlier notice.
