contents In the present work we have investigated some patterns of broken ``scaling" ansatz of the neutrino mass matrix. The scaling neutrino mass matrix is disallowed by the current neutrino oscillation data as, among others, it predicts vanishing reactor angle ($θ_{13}=0$). We study its possible breaking scenarios in light of the large mixing angle (LMA) and Dark-LMA solutions suggested by current neutrino oscillation data. The normal hierarchical neutrino mass spectrum is ruled out in all three possible breaking patterns. Also, one of the interesting features of these breaking scenarios is the interplay between $θ_{23}$-octant and possible CP violation. We find that the model allows maximal CP violation for $θ_{23}$ above $6\%$ of its maximal value which, interestingly, is close to its current best-fit value for inverted hierarchical neutrino masses. We have, also, investigated the implications for effective Majorana neutrino mass parameter $|M_{ee}|$ for allowed breaking patterns. The correlation behavior of Majorana CP phases, which can be probed in $0νββ$ decay experiments, is found to have the capability of distinguishing LMA and Dark-LMA solutions.
