Section 170A(2) requires the assessing officer to compute total income in accordance with a business reorganisation order and the modified return. Where the assessment was pending on the date the modified return was filed (clause (b)), the AO must incorporate the scheme effects rather than treat the modified return as subject to fresh re-scrutiny; the HC found re-opening a completed scrutiny of that modified return was contrary to Section 170A(2)(b) and that mechanically issued notices vitiated the process. Consequentially, the impugned notices issued under section 143(2) and 142(1) were quashed and set aside.
