Issues: Whether the Sales Tax Appellate Tribunal committed an error in law by ignoring the earlier remand order of the Court and failing to dispose of the appeals in accordance with the directions contained therein.
Analysis: The earlier judgment had set aside the Tribunal's former order and remitted the matters for fresh consideration in the light of the Court's observations. The Tribunal, instead of examining the appeals as directed, relied on a later Division Bench decision and recorded conclusions without addressing the specific questions left open by the remand order. The Court held that the Tribunal was bound to comply with the remand directions and could not disregard them. The legal effect of the Board's communication and the Government order also required consideration in the manner indicated in the earlier judgment.
Conclusion: The Tribunal's order was erroneous in law for non-compliance with the remand directions, and the order was set aside with a further direction to dispose of the appeals afresh in accordance with law and the earlier judgment.
Ratio Decidendi: A lower appellate authority must act strictly in accordance with the terms of remand and cannot ignore or bypass binding directions while deciding the matter afresh.
