For assessment years beginning on or before 1 April 2021, the first proviso to section 149(1) retains the limitation period under the erstwhile reassessment regime as a threshold bar. A reassessment notice for AY 2015-16, issued after the applicable six-year period had expired, was therefore time-barred. Compliance with section 148A and any exclusion or extension under the former third and fourth provisos to section 149(1) could not revive a notice prohibited by the first proviso. The ITAT quashed the reassessment notice and consequential reassessment order; other grounds became academic.
