Validity of reopening of assessment - if only the AO who applied for approval under Section 151 of the Act had only read the approval form, he would have made the required corrections. If only the Additional/Joint Commissioner of Income Tax had read the approval form and the order under Section 148A(d) of the Act and the file relating to the matter, he would not have recommended granting of approval. So also the Principal Commissioner of Income Tax. If he had only read the file, he would have realised that if the time limit for current proceedings is covered under Section 149(1)(b) of the Act, i.e., for more than 3 years but not more than 10 years, he has no power to grant approval and the approval should have been granted by the Principal Commissioner of Income Tax. Reassessment proceedings quashed - HC
