In income tax parlance previous year is the accounting year.
assesment year is the next year.

In the Financial year which is from 1st April 2022 to 31st March 2023 , you pay all your Income tax liabilities by way of Advance Tax , TDS , self assessment tax etc.

Assessment year which is from 1st of April 2023 to 31 March 24 , all your tax liabilities paid in the financial year 22-23 , will be assessed by the Income tax department , therefore it is assessment year. Also in section 2(9) of the income tax Act define assessment year.
