The Supreme Court held that the appeal against the Assistant Collector's order lay before the Collector (Appeals) and that the Collector (Appeals) was incorrect in treating the Tribunal as the appellate forum. Consequentially, the Court set aside the impugned order of the Collector (Appeals) dated 31-3-1993 and also quashed the subsequent orders of the Tribunal and the High Court which flowed from that incorrect direction. The matter was remitted to the Collector (Appeals) with a direction to hear and decide the appeal against the Assistant Collector's order dated 20-3-1992 in accordance with law, giving the parties appropriate opportunity.
