A No. 26/Kol/2018 ( Arising out of I.T.A No. 715/Kol/2012 ) - - - Dated:- 6-6-2018 - Shri A. T. Varkey, JM And Dr. A. L. Saini, AM Appellant by : Shri A. Bhattacharjee, Addl. CIT (DR). Respondent by : Shri M. D. Shah, AR ORDER Per Dr. Arjun Lal Saini, AM By way of captioned application, the Revenue has sought to point out that a mistake apparent from record within the meaning of section 254(2) of the Income Tax Act, 1961(in short the Act ) has crept in the order of the Tribunal dated 15.12.2017. 2. The case of the Revenue in this Miscellaneous Application is that the Revenue has filed earlier Miscellaneous Application No.136/Kol/2017 arising out of ITA No.715/Kol/20 .....

Admittedly, by the impugned order, the Tribunal has sought to rectify the order passed by it under s. 256(1) of the Act and not an order passed under s. 254(1). We have no hesitation in holding that the Tribunal is not clothed with an inherent power to rectify/recall an order passed under s. 256(1) of the Act by taking recourse to s. 254(2) of the Act and, therefore, the impugned order is illegal and invalid. The view taken by us finds support from a decision of this Court in CIT vs. Kabir Das Investment Ltd. (1995) 124 CTR (Del) 259 : (1994) 210 ITR 898 (Del) : TC 55R.777. 4.
