Issues involved: Review petition seeking modification in the order dated 31.07.2012 passed in W.P. No.7187/2012 under Section 133A of the Income Tax Act.
Judgment Summary: The petitioner filed a review petition seeking modification in the order dated 31.07.2012 passed by the High Court in W.P. No.7187/2012. The Court had expressed a tentative opinion and dismissed the writ petition in limine. The petitioner was concerned that this opinion might be treated as binding by the authorities. The respondents argued that the opinion was tentative and the authorities should decide independently. The Court found no case for interference at that stage and clarified that its opinion should not influence the authorities' decision-making process. The Court modified the order to state that the writ petition is disposed of, and emphasized that the words "tentative opinion" should not hinder the authorities in deciding the petitioner's objections in accordance with the law. In conclusion, the review petition seeking modification in the order dated 31.07.2012 was disposed of with the Court's clarification that its opinion was tentative and should not affect the authorities' independent decision-making process regarding the petitioner's objections under Section 133A of the Income Tax Act.
