Reopening of assessment u/s 147 - The High Court noted that the issue of disallowance under Section 14A of the Act had been thoroughly examined during the original assessment proceedings. It observed that the impugned notice was issued based on the same issue already considered during the original assessment and lacked any fresh tangible material for reopening. The High Court held that the Assessing Officer failed to assume jurisdiction to issue the notice, especially considering that it was issued after four years from the end of the assessment year and after the framing of the original assessment.
