S 144 is best judgement by A O.

Time limit for completion of assessments and reassessments

(1) No order of assessment shall be made under section 143 or section 144 at any time after the expiry of-

(a) two years from the end of the assessment year in which the income was first assessable; or

(b) one year from the end of the financial year in which a return or a revised return relating to the assessment year commencing on the 1st day of April, 1988, or any earlier assessment year, is filed under sub-section (4) or sub-section (5) of section 139,

whichever is later.
