Reopening of assessment under the reformed reassessment procedure is impermissible once an assessment order has been passed; the note explains that where prior proceedings under the old regime did not result in an assessment order, a fresh notice within the statutory limitation window may be issued in line with recent higher-court guidance, but once an assessment order exists there is no scope to issue a fresh reopening notice or reopen the assessment under the substituted procedure.
