..... disclosed income had escaped assessment due to failure on its part to provide particulars. If such wide margins were to be provided to the AOs, possibly, thousands of entries would lead to reopening of assessment of careless assessees. The link between the assessee’s returns and the amounts said to have escaped assessment had to be necessarily shown.

..... sactions was subject to Section 143(3) assessment. The law as to the appropriateness of an order reopening assessments is now well settled by the ruling of the judgment in CIT v. Kelvinator India Ltd. 320 ITR 561. The Supreme Court has ruled that tangible material should be disclosed or forthcoming to persuade the AO to reopen the assessment and that the text of the statute in that regard as to the satisfaction that the assessee had failed to disclose particulars in the return which resulted in income escaping assessment, should be clear. In the present case, the opinion of the AO which is placed on the record discloses that his part of the order is entirely concerned with the transactions to which M/s. H.B.
