Goswami, learned State Representative appearing for respondents, we are of the opinion that these two main applications are capable of being finally disposed of.

According to him, there is the necessity to determine the gross turnover including the turnover of inter-State sales and thereafter to deduct such inter-State sales under section 5(2)(a)(v). Dr. Pal, however, thinks that this need not be done at this stage and may be done at a subsequent stage, if ultimately there is any need for fresh assessment.
