The High Court revisited the reopening of assessment u/s 147 due to the assessee's involvement in penny share transactions. The petitioner invested in shares through IPO and provided necessary details during regular assessment. The Assessing Officer relied on information from DDIT Investigation Unit to allege income escapement.
