Assessee not allowed to raise same issue again in the guise of rectification before ITAT

January 11, 2013 1104 Views 0 comment Print

On going through the order passed by the Tribunal, it is found that the Tribunal passed the order, after marshalling at the facts considering the submissions made before it and applying its mind to the decisions cited before it.
