Reopening of assessment u/s 147 - validity of notice u/s 148A - alleged income which is said to have escaped assessment is much below Rs. 50,00,000 - Only on the basis that the cash deposits chargeable to tax have escaped assessment, without anything more, the authority was not justified in jumping to the conclusion that the assessee may have more bank accounts.
