AR has pointed out that the filing on 07.01.2004 is a mere re-filing of documents to facilitate the registration process and there was no fresh application. We observe that the application was in fact filed on 31.03.2000 and not on 07.01.2004. We also find that it is not a case of revenue that the application dated 31.03.2000 was rejected by CIT as there is no such material produced before us. In such circumstances, therefore, there is no justification to grant registration from 01.04.2003. In fact, the CIT ought to have granted registration from 01.04.1999.

The assessee filed rectification-application u/s 154 of the act to Ld.

AR submitted that the copies of Form 10A and documents submitted on 07.01.2004 is a mere re-filing of what had already been filed on 31.03.2000 and it was not a fresh application by assessee. According to Ld. AR, therefore, there was no justification in granting registration from 01.04.2003 in place of 01.04.1999. 5. Ld. AR further carried our attention to the direction given by this Bench in its order dated 15.10.2008 in the first round of litigation i.e. in ITA No. 118/Ind/2008 (supra) where this Bench had directed the Ld.
