Jurisdictional objections in reassessment, including a notice issued in the name of a deceased assessee and alleged procedural non-compliance, must be addressed before merits where they could invalidate the reassessment. Section 250(6) requires the appellate authority to identify each point for determination, record its decision and provide reasons; a general reference to the assessment order does not constitute ground-wise reasoned adjudication. The authority's power to set aside a best-judgment assessment does not remove this obligation. Jurisdictional and legal grounds should be decided through a speaking order before additions are examined on merits, which arise only if the reassessment is valid.
