Reassessment

9. Reassessment:-

If, after a person liable to pay tax has been assessed under section 8 for any period, the Assessing Authority has reason to believe that any purchase value or part thereof has, in respect of that period, escaped assessment, or has been under-assessed or assessed at a lower rate, then the Assessing Authority may, within five years from the date of the order of assessment of the particular period, after giving the person a reasonable opportunity of being heard, may reassess, to the best of his judgment, the tax due from him.
