CITATION:
“Escapement of income” in s. 147 should be given a strict construction

In my opinion “escapement of income” should be given a strict construction. Not only should it not be used to justify a change of view it should not be used to reopen an assessment on facts, information, documents which were before the Assessing Officer or could have been easily found by him while making the assessment. Otherwise, there would be no finality of assessment. It will go on and on and might become a tool in the hands of the department to cause harassment to the assessee.
