..... ate Assistant Commissioner (CT) has relied on the decision of Hon'ble High Court of Madras in the case of State of Tamil Nadu Vs. Subbu Chemicals (102 STC 613), to dismiss the appeal. Considering the facts of this case, we could find that the Assessing Officer has passed the assessment order only to rectify the mistake pointed out by the dealers. This revision for rectification does not assessed any escaped turnover for tax, to call it as revision under section 16 of TNGST Act, 1959, for which alone appeal stands before the Appellate Assistant Commissioner(CT).

..... d the rectification of mistake of wrong credit was done only based on the request of the dealers. Further, this assessment order again rectified on 19.03.96 (Assessment File Page-599) on the request of the dealers. No where it was stated that the dealers objected the turnovers.

..... h Sales made by the Assessee of the goods received in the course of inter-State Trade or Commerce. 7. Having heard the learned counsel for the parties, we are satisfied that the Original Assessment order does not merge with the Rectification Order passed by the Assessing Authority. In the present case, the Rectification as prayed by the Assessee only was allowed by the Assessing Authority himself and therefore, we do not find any reason for the Assessee to to file further Appeal against such Rectification Order in his own favour. 8. We fail to understand what prevented the Assessee from assailing the Original Assessment Order dated 31.3.1995 itself.
