Reopening of a concluded scrutiny assessment beyond four years requires recorded reasons that independently demonstrate tangible material, a rational link to income escaping assessment, and the taxpayer's failure to make a full and true disclosure of primary facts. Recorded reasons containing factual errors and no connection between an alleged entry operator and the shareholder do not establish due application of mind or a valid reason to believe.
