Reopening of assessment u/s 147 - The words ‘ reason to believe’ appearing in Section 147 cannot mean that the A.O should have finally ascertained the facts. Assessing Officer merely forms a ‘belief’ from the examination he makes and if escaped assessment, it would amount to saying that he has ‘ reason to believe’ that such income has ‘escaped assessment’.
