2021 (12) TMI 1409 - GUJARAT HIGH COURTReopening of assessment u/s 147 - assumption of jurisdiction itself is bad in law - reopening as beyond a period of four years - HELD THAT:- This is purely a question of law which arises for consideration as the reopening is beyond a period of four years and the reasons recorded do not, in any manner, say that there was anything that had been done on the part of the petitioner – assessee which has led to the income escaping the assessment. In absence of failure disclosed fully and truly all material facts, any reopening beyond a period of four years from the end of the assessment year 2014-15 is unsustainable. There is no whisper of the failure of the part of the petitioner of the true and full disclosure in the reasons which have been furnished and therefore, the petitioner has to be considered as a victim and with that being clear in the mind of the revenue also, this notice has been issued, and hence, this requires indulgence. The present petition stands disposed of as withdrawn.
