    This is yet another glaring instance, which in one’s perception,and long standing conviction, goes to demonstrate the indisputable fact of life; namely that, most of such or similar type of litigation, could have been avoided/not prolonged, in any event to the level of High court, had the Revenue / its concerned lower authorities, besides taxpayers, have cared and acted sanely and sensibly on an issue reasonably settled once by the court in any State, constituting a “PRECEDENT”. Especially so,should the factual matrix in a given case is, in material respects, on all fours/not at variance in an intelligent comparison to that earlier decided court case.

    Over to suitably equipped ‘experts’ for carrying forward the matter , keepig in focus what is essentially to be done for the common good of both taxpayers and the Revenue.
