..... cted the learned CIT(A) to decide all the grounds raised by the assessee afresh. The learned CIT(A), following the directions of the Tribunal, by relying upon various case laws, dismissed the appeal of the assessee. Once again, the assessee being aggrieved filed appeal before the Tribunal. 5.
