9. In the present case, admittedly the extended period of six years is being invoked not under (a) or (b) set out above but only in view of (c) i.e., failure to disclose fully and truly all material facts necessary for assessment.

It is submitted that in the absence of any finding on the above jurisdictional fact, the entire proceeding would be void and a nullity. We find there is merit in the above submission inasmuch as the normal period of limitation for exercising the power of reassessment under Section 147 of the Act is four years. The extended period of six years could be invoked only under three circumstances set~out/ mentioned above. Admittedly, the only circumstance which could have enabled the respondents to invoke the extended period of 6 years in the present case is to bring the proceedings under clause (c). To invoke the extended period of six years for reassessment, the reasons furnished for reassessment ought to contain a finding that the appellant herein had failed to disclose fully and truly all material facts necessary for assessment. We say this, since it appears to us that the whole idea of furnishing reasons before embarking on a full fledged exercise of reassessment was to ensure that the powers of reassessment are exercised only in circumstances which the statute permit. The above limitation/restriction on the power of reassessment was intended to ensure transparency in the proceeding and to avoid abuse of power. It is trite law that power of reassessment must be exercised with a degree of caution and an element of circumspection and must be strictly in compliance with the procedure and only in circumstances which warrants exercise of that power.
