About Section 147 (Income Escaping Assessment)
Section 147 of the Income Tax Act empowers the Assessing Officer to reassess income that has escaped assessment. This provision is invoked when the department believes that certain income was not disclosed or properly assessed in earlier returns. It forms the legal basis for reopening cases, typically initiated through a notice under Section 148.
