Issues involved:
Rectification of order regarding estimation of profit based on submissions and contentions.

Analysis:
The appellant filed a miscellaneous application seeking rectification of the order passed by the Tribunal. The issue raised was that the Tribunal did not decide on the estimation of profit based on the submissions made during the hearing. The appellant's counsel argued that the income estimation issue remained unadjudicated, as the Tribunal set aside the matter without any specific direction. The counsel referred to a previous case where net commission income was estimated at 0.10% and requested a similar estimation in this case. The Departmental Representative objected, stating that the Tribunal had set aside the issue without directions. After hearing both parties, the Tribunal noted that the arguments of the appellant's counsel were not addressed in the order. The Tribunal acknowledged the mistake in omitting the assessment by estimation of income on the remaining amount after excluding certain entries in the bank account. Consequently, the Tribunal directed the appellant to exclude specific entries and assess the income by estimating the commission based on the remaining amount, following the decision of a coordinate bench in a previous case. The Tribunal allowed the miscellaneous application and amended the order accordingly.
