Issues involved: Application for recall of Tribunal order regarding Capital Gains computation.

Summary:
The Miscellaneous Application was filed by the assessee to recall the Tribunal's order dated 11.03.2011 concerning the computation of Capital Gains for the assessment year 2006-07. During the hearing, the assessee's representative highlighted that Ground No.4, which pertained to the adoption of value as of 01.04.1981, was not addressed by the Tribunal. The Revenue's representative argued that since the Tribunal had set aside the entire issue, Ground No.4 was also covered and not a mistake apparent from the record. The assessee's counsel contended that the Assessing Officer did not properly implement the Tribunal's orders despite the specific ground raised in the appeal. Consequently, they requested a fresh consideration of the ground and appropriate directions. After considering the submissions, the Tribunal acknowledged the lack of specific instructions regarding Ground No.4 and, in the interest of justice, decided to recall the order to address this specific ground only. The case was scheduled for a merit hearing on 13.07.2012 without the need for fresh notices to the parties. Ultimately, the Miscellaneous Application of the assessee was allowed, and the order was pronounced in the open court on 16.03.2012.
