Reassessment procedure requires the Assessing Officer to furnish recorded reasons and decide objections to reopening by a speaking order before initiating scrutiny through a notice under section 143(2). A return filed in response to a reopening notice must be processed under the regular assessment procedure, but scrutiny cannot precede determination of jurisdictional objections. Further, no action, including a notice under section 142(1), may be taken for four weeks after service of an order rejecting objections. Notices issued contrary to these requirements, and consequential action, were quashed; the reopening challenge remained open.
