Issues:
1. Appeal filed under section 260A of the Income-tax Act, 1961 regarding cash credit and disallowance of interest. 2. Dispute arising from reassessment order passed by the Assessing Officer after remand. Analysis: The appeal was filed by the assessee under section 260A of the Income-tax Act, 1961, raising questions regarding the setting aside of cash credit and disallowance of interest. The Tribunal dismissed the appeal filed by the assessee, confirming the order of the Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals) in restoring the issue to the Assessing Officer. The Tribunal also disposed of the Revenue's appeal by passing a similar order of remand. The dispute in the case arose from the reassessment order passed by the Assessing Officer after remand, where additions of unexplained cash credits and disallowance of interest were made. The Tribunal's decision to remand the matter again instead of deciding it on merits led to confusion due to the common judgment for both appeals. The High Court found that the Tribunal should have decided the matter on merits after the reassessment order was passed by the Assessing Officer in compliance with the remand order. The confusion arose from both appeals being heard and disposed of through a common judgment. Consequently, the High Court quashed and set aside the impugned order pertaining to one of the appeals. The Tribunal was directed to hear the specific appeal on its merits and pass an appropriate order after providing an opportunity for hearing. The income-tax appeal was allowed with no order as to costs, emphasizing the need for a thorough consideration of the issues raised regarding cash credit and disallowance of interest.
