The HC held that the AO lacked jurisdiction to reopen the assessment beyond four years u/s 147. The reasons did not establish the assessee's failure to fully disclose material facts. The AO merely changed its opinion on the same material, which is impermissible. Reopening was based on existing material without any fresh tangible evidence, violating the first proviso to Section 147. The HC entertained the writ petition and quashed the reopening notice for lack of jurisdictional compliance.
