Reopening of assessment under Section 147 before the 01.04.2021 amendments requires only that the notice under Section 148 be issued within the limitation period; service within that period is not a jurisdictional prerequisite.

Applying that rule, the reassessment proceedings were not vitiated by delayed service or an accompanying attachment error, and the writ challenging the reassessment was dismissed.
