Consideration of original records and subsequent evidence.4. Scope of rectification application - factual and legal errors.5. Disposal of rectification and reference applications by a common order.6. Permissibility of further rectification applications.7. Review powers of the Tribunal.Analysis:1. The judgment involves a second application for rectification of a mistake alleged in the Final Order No. 1000/94-WRB dated 23-5-1994, where excess components not declared on the Bill of Entry were found liable for confiscation. The Tribunal reduced the redemption fine but remitted the penalty. The applicants sought rectification based on the observation that the list attested by DGTD did not cover the excess quantity, citing legal precedents to support their arguments.2. The Tribunal considered the maintainability of multiple rectification applications, questioning whether reiterating grounds from the first application in subsequent applications is permissible. The applicants urged reconsideration of the earlier order, raising concerns about the Tribunal's refusal to accept their arguments in the first rectification application.3. The judgment delves into the consideration of original records and subsequent evidence, emphasizing the importance of producing all relevant documents before the Tribunal. The Tribunal examined the records before it, including the attestation by DGTD for the excess quantity, which was not disputed, and its impact on the case.4. The scope of the rectification application was analyzed in terms of factual and legal errors. The applicants argued that rectification should not be limited to factual mistakes but should also cover errors in the interpretation of the law. The Tribunal assessed these arguments in light of the legal principles cited by the applicants.5. The judgment addresses the disposal of rectification and reference applications by a common order, highlighting the need for detailed findings on each argument raised. The Tribunal clarified that if the findings are not acceptable, the parties must seek alternative remedies rather than filing repetitive applications on the same points.6. The permissibility of further rectification applications was scrutinized, with the Tribunal emphasizing that a second rectification application reiterating grounds from the first application cannot be sustained. The judgment underscored the finality of the Tribunal's order and the limited scope of rectification powers.7. Lastly, the judgment discussed the review powers of the Tribunal, emphasizing that rectification is only permissible for mistakes apparent on the record and not for seeking a review or modification of the Tribunal's final order. The Tribunal's decision in dismissing the second rectification application was based on these principles and legal precedents cited in the case.
