(1) An assessing authority or revising authority or the Appellate Tribunal may, at any time within three years from the date of any order passed by it, rectify any error apparent on the face of the record: Provided that no such rectification which has the effect of enhancing an assessment or any penalty shall be made unless such authority has given notice to the dealer and has allowed him a reasonable opportunity of being heard.
(2) Where such rectification has the effect of reducing an assessment or penalty, the assessing authority shall make refund, if any, which may be due to the dealer.
(3) Where any such rectification has the effect of enhancing an assessment or penalty, the assessing authority shall give the dealer a revised notice of assessment or penalty and thereupon the provisions of this Act, and the rules made thereunder shall apply as if such notice had been given in the first instance.
