These two appeals filed by Deepika Jain and Vikas Exports relate to assessment year 1994-95 and the following substantial question of law was admitted for hearing vide order dated 18.09.2002. Whether on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the Income-Tax Appellate Tribunal was justified in setting aside the assessment order without assigning any reason therefor? 2.

However, the comments that the report of the Valuation Officer is binding of the Valuation Officer.
