Reopening of assessment was held invalid where the PCIT's approval consisted only of the terse statement "yes, I am satisfied" without recorded reasons; such mechanical approval fails the requirement that the approving officer must record satisfaction and reasons, rendering the issuance of notice and consequential assessment legally unsustainable.
