Reassessment under Section 147 cannot be used to review conclusions reached in an original scrutiny assessment. Where the Assessing Officer had specifically examined depreciation claims, deductions, exempt-income expenditure and pre-production income, reopening based only on the same assessment record and a successor officer's different inference constitutes a change of opinion.

The reassessment was therefore quashed and the revenue's appeal dismissed.
