Section 151 sanction for reassessment requires meaningful, independent application of mind; a bare endorsement that notice is fit to issue on the Assessing Officer's recorded reasons is mechanical and invalid. This statutory safeguard applies even if sanction is administrative, because reasons must demonstrate the approving authority's consideration.
