ITAT held that the reopening under sections 147/148 and the section 148A notice were invalid as issued on the same facts and documents already verified during original assessment, constituting a prohibited change of opinion; no new material was brought on record by the AO to sustain reopening. The Tribunal also deleted the addition under section 43CA, finding the stamp duty value-agreement value variance below the 5% margin applicable to AY 2016-17, and directed the AO to delete the impugned addition. Grounds raised by the Assessee in respect of the reopening and the section 43CA addition were allowed.
