Reopening of assessment u/s 147 - As can safely be gathered from a perusal of the reasons to believe, we are of the considered view that the A.O holding a conviction that his predecessor while framing the regular assessment was in error in accepting the share premium received by the assessee company, which as per him was unexplained, had thus with the sole objective of substituting his view as against that of his predecessor, therein, sought to reopen the case of the assessee company.
