Revision under VAT law limited to Tribunal orders under specified provisions; rectification order and time-bar defeated challenge.

Section 48(1) revision under the Himachal Pradesh VAT Act lies only against Tribunal orders passed under Sections 45(2) or 46(3) and only where an erroneous legal decision or failure to decide a question of law is shown. A rectification order under Section 47(1) does not fall within that revisional scope, so it cannot be challenged under Section 48(1). The challenge to the Tribunal's original appellate order was also beyond the prescribed revision period, and no surviving question of law remained.

Issues: Whether a revision under Section 48(1) of the Himachal Pradesh Value Added Tax Act, 2005 was maintainable against an order passed in rectification proceedings under Section 47(1) of the Act, and whether the challenge to the Tribunal's original appellate order was barred by limitation.

Analysis: Section 48(1) permits revision only against orders of the Tribunal passed under Section 45(2) or Section 46(3) and only where the order gives rise to a question of law arising from an erroneous decision of law or failure to decide a question of law. An order passed in rectification proceedings under Section 47(1) does not fall within the scope of that revisional provision. The original Tribunal order dated 14.06.2017 was also beyond the period prescribed for revision under Section 48(1), and no question of law survived for consideration.

Conclusion: The revision was not maintainable against the rectification order, the challenge to the original order was time-barred, and the revision petition was dismissed.
