The extended period beyond six assessment years for a search assessment under the fourth proviso to section 153A(1) applies only where material available to the Assessing Officer shows escaped income represented by a stipulated asset of the required value. Alleged on-money receipts from project buyers, without a finding that those receipts were represented by such an asset, do not meet that condition. Assessments initiated beyond the six-year period on that basis were void ab initio, and the consequential reassessment orders for the relevant years were invalid.
