Reopening of assessment u/s 147 - The duty is cast upon the assessee to make true and full disclosure of the facts at the time of original assessment. The duty of the assessee in any case does not extend beyond making a true and full disclosure of primary facts. It is for the Assessing officer to draw the correct inference from the primary facts. If the assessing officer draws an inference which appears subsequently to be erroneous, mere change of opinion with regard to that inference would not justify initiation of action for reopening assessment. - HC
