The Appellate Tribunal held that the definition of 'proceeds of crime' encompasses not only the property derived or obtained directly or indirectly from criminal activity, but also any other property of equivalent value when the original proceeds are unavailable. The Adjudicating Authority's narrow interpretation of the definition was incorrect. The Tribunal set aside the Adjudicating Authority's order and remanded the case for fresh consideration within the statutory period, with parties to remain present on 10.12.2024. The appeal was allowed.
