Reopening of assessment under the income tax code was challenged on the ground that the reasons recorded relied solely on the claim of interest deduction made without a certificate. The court held that validity of reassessment must be tested only by the reasons recorded; material asserted only in an affidavit cannot supply a basis. The absence of a certificate was not a valid ground where statutes did not require filing it in the assessed facts, and precedent distinguishing cases where expenditure related to taxfree income was disallowable was applied. Consequence: reassessment jurisdiction was invalidated and the appeal by the assessee allowed.
