Rectification of apparent mistakes in the Tribunal order regarding reliance on specific cases for admission of additional evidence. Analysis: The ld. senior departmental representative highlighted two apparent mistakes in the Tribunal order. Firstly, he argued that the Tribunal did not rely on the correct ratio of a specific case while rejecting the admission of additional evidence. Secondly, he pointed out that another case he cited in support of admitting additional evidence was not addressed by the Tribunal. However, the representative failed to refute the fact that the facts of the instant case differed significantly from the cases cited. The Tribunal noted that the additional papers submitted by the Revenue were not produced before the CIT (A) but were presented during the Tribunal proceedings. This contrasted with the cases cited where both parties had agreed on the evidence. The Tribunal emphasized the importance of considering all materials available, including evidence gathered subsequently, to reach a conclusion. The Tribunal further elaborated on various observations made by the Supreme Court in similar cases, emphasizing the need to properly examine evidence and not reject relevant information. The Tribunal highlighted that the facts and observations in the cases cited by the departmental representative did not align with the present case. The Tribunal clarified that the quoted passages from the Supreme Court cases were accurately reflected in their order, supporting the assessee's case rather than the Revenue's contentions. The Tribunal concluded that there was no apparent mistake in their order that warranted rectification under the IT Act. While the specific case cited by the departmental representative was not explicitly mentioned in the order, the Tribunal found that the essence and findings of that case were encompassed in their analysis. The Tribunal emphasized that it was not necessary to address each case individually if they presented identical facts and findings. Ultimately, the Tribunal dismissed the miscellaneous petition of the Revenue, stating that it was misconceived and rejected. In summary, the Tribunal thoroughly analyzed the discrepancies raised by the departmental representative regarding the reliance on specific cases for admitting additional evidence. The Tribunal justified its decision by highlighting the differences in facts and observations between the cited cases and the present matter. The Tribunal asserted that no rectifiable mistake was present in their order and rejected the Revenue's miscellaneous petition accordingly.
