Section 46:
Revision of orders prejudicial to revenue.
The Commissioner may call for and examine the
records of any proceeding under this Act and if he considers that any order passed therein by any person
appointed under sub-section (2) of section 9 to assist him, is erroneous in so far as it is prejudicial to the
interests of revenue, he may, after giving the dealer an opportunity of being heard and after making or
causing to be made such inquiry as he deems necessary, pass such order thereon as the circumstances of
the case justify, including an order enhancing or modifying the assessment and penalty (if any) imposed
or cancelling the assessment and penalty (if any) imposed and directing a fresh assessment:
Provided that a final order under this section shall be made before the expiry of five years from the
date of the order sought to be revised.
