During the course of hearing, the learned AR of the Assessee has vehemently argued reiterating the contentions raised before the lower authorities with reference to the various citations relied on in support of his contentions. He further submitted that the Departmental Authorities have erred in not appreciating the contention of the Assessee that the cost of production of power produced by power plant unit valued at the market rate at which the power is being supplied to the general public by the State Electricity Board.

In that view of the mater, the Departmental Authorities has passed well reasoned order and it does not warrant any interference. Hence, the learned DR sought for dismissal of the appeal by upholding the orders passed by the Departmental Authorities. 9.
