The High Court quashed the reopening of assessments u/s 148, holding that the reasons recorded by the Assessing Officer were cryptic, vague, lacking nexus, and demonstrating non-application of mind. The court observed that the Assessing Officer failed to establish a prima facie reason to believe that income had escaped assessment, particularly when the assessee had explained that the bank deposits represented cash sales duly recorded in the books of account. The court emphasized that for reopening assessments, the Assessing Officer must demonstrate a nexus between the information received and the satisfaction formed regarding income escaping assessment, which was lacking in this case. Consequently, the Assessing Officer could not assume jurisdiction to reopen the assessments due to the total lack of formation of a valid reason to believe escapement of substantial income.
