Issues:
1. Rectification of mistake in the order regarding genuineness of loan transaction. 2. Consideration of assessment order of the loan creditor. 3. Admission of fresh evidence before the Tribunal. 4. Direction for re-examination of the genuineness of the loan transaction. 5. Setting aside the assessment for a limited issue. 6. Allowing the appeal for statistical purposes. Analysis: 1. The assessee filed an application seeking rectification of a mistake in the Tribunal's order regarding the genuineness of a loan transaction. The assessee argued that crucial evidence, the assessment order of the loan creditor, was not considered by the Tribunal during the appeal hearing. The counsel contended that this evidence would have impacted the conclusion on the loan transaction's genuineness. The Tribunal acknowledged the mistake and agreed to rectify it. 2. The Departmental Representative opposed the rectification, stating that the assessment order of the loan creditor was not presented before the lower authorities or the assessing officer. However, the Tribunal found merit in the assessee's argument and admitted the assessment order as important evidence for consideration. 3. The Tribunal recognized its error in not considering the assessment order of the loan creditor, which was submitted by the assessee during the appeal hearing. Consequently, the Tribunal decided to substitute paragraphs in its previous order and admitted the assessment order as fresh evidence for adjudication. 4. After reviewing the assessment order of the loan creditor, the Tribunal determined that the matter should be sent back to the assessing officer for a fresh adjudication. The Tribunal highlighted the significance of the assessment order in establishing the genuineness of the loan transaction and directed the assessing officer to re-examine the issue considering this new evidence. 5. In light of the fresh evidence and the importance of the assessment order, the Tribunal vacated the order of the Appellate Authority Commissioner on the specific issue of the loan transaction's genuineness. The Tribunal set aside the assessment for this limited issue and instructed a re-examination by the assessing officer. 6. As a result of the above decisions and directions, the Tribunal treated the appeal as allowed for statistical purposes, indicating a favorable outcome for the assessee. The Miscellaneous Application filed by the assessee seeking rectification was allowed by the Tribunal, ensuring the correction of the mistake in the order regarding the loan transaction's genuineness.
