Following the Tribunal's order dismissing, assessee and Revenue filed miscellaneous applications pointing out various alleged mistakes apparent from the record. ITAT dismissed Revenue's applications as they were filed after 5 years and the proper remedy was to challenge the order by writ in High Court. It allowed the assessee's application and rectified the error.-501174
1. The AO refused to allow to the assessee the deduction claimed u/s 10B.
2. The Ld. CIT(A)partly allowed the appeal of the assessee.
3. The Tribunal, vide order dated 31.08.2009 dismissed the assessee's appeal against the aforesaid order passed by the ld. CIT(A). 2.1 The assessee filed M.A. No.98(Asr)/2009 before the Tribunal, pointing out various alleged mistakes apparent from the record in the aforesaid Tribunal order dated 31.08.2009.
4. The Revenue filed five Miscellaneous Applications which were allowed and it again filed against five Miscellaneous Applications against the common order dated 05.03.2015 passed by the Tribunal, which had caused immense prejudice to the interests of the Revenue. One Miscellaneous Application was field by the assessee, against the orders of the Tribunal.
5. The ITAT held as under:
"6. Having heard the rival contentions in the light of the material placed on record, we find that the Department has not placed anything on record to show that the Tribunal order dated 04.03.2010, whereby its earlier order dated 31.08.2009 was recalled, has been challenged by the Department before the Hon'ble High Court by way of appeal/writ petition. Obviously, the remedy, if any available with the Department against the aforesaid Tribunal order dated 04.03.2010, was by way of appeal/writ petition before the Hon'ble High Court, as per advice. Almost a period of five years has expired since the passing of the said order of the Tribunal, this obviously shows that the Department sits satisfied with the Tribunal order dated 04.03.2010. For this very reason, the applications now filed by the Department do not carry any merit.
7. All these grievances of the assessee are found to be correct. ITA No.345(Asr)/2009 was an appeal against the action of the ld. CIT(A) in sustaining the penalty imposed on the assessee u/s 271(1)(c) of the I.T. Act. The other four appeals, on the other hand, were quantum appeals for the assessment years 2006-07 to 2009-10. As such, there has crept in an inadvertent error in our order dated 05.03.215, wherein, in para no.92, it has been observed that "As stated in the beginning of this order, the facts in all the five appeals are, mutatis mutandis, similar. Therefore, our observations will equally apply to the other appeals also".”
