I have heard Sri Bharat Ji Agrawal, learned counsel for the revisionist, and Sri H.R. Mishra, learned Standing Counsel for the opposite party. 3.. The proceedings relate to the assessment year 1979-80 for which the assessment order was passed by the assessing officer on March 25, 1984 in which the turnover of the tyres and tubes was treated as exempt.
