The HC allowed the petition, holding that the issuance of a notice under s.148A(b) did not furnish a basis to reopen assessment where the reasons relied upon had already been considered by the AO in the original assessment order; an AO lacks jurisdiction to effectively review or revisit his concluded assessment by invoking reassessment proceedings under s.148 to reappreciate documents and explanations already placed on record.
