AO solely relied on unspecified information categorized as 'high risk transactions' of unsecured loans without giving specific details of lenders, amounting to bald allegations. No definitive link or adverse document was present at the time of forming belief. Mere identification of transactions as 'high risk' cannot provide cause for reopening assessment.
