Final settlement orders under section 245D(4) cover statutory deductions disclosed in the settlement application, including a section 80IB(10) housing-project deduction. Chapter XIX-A permits departure from that finality only when the Settlement Commission declares its order void for fraud or misrepresentation. It does not preserve a parallel power for the Assessing Officer to reopen, under sections 147 and 148, deduction issues already covered by the final settlement. Where the prescribed recourse to challenge the settlement order has been rejected and attained finality, reassessment of that deduction is unsustainable.
