Reopening under reassessment provisions was upheld where the Assessing Officer relied on tangible seized material, printouts and a statement recorded during GST proceedings plus information from a third party, providing a prima facie basis to form belief that income escaped assessment; retraction of the statement did not, absent evidence of coercion, negate the seized material and did not vitiate the reopening.
