The High Court held that while exercising jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution, it does not assume the role of an appellate authority to conduct a merit review of orders passed by the Income Tax Settlement Commission. Its role is confined to judicial review by applying well-settled principles. The Court would be concerned with the decision-making process adopted by the Commission, not the decision itself. The scope of inquiry is limited to whether the Commission's order complies with statutory provisions of Chapter XIX-A of the Income Tax Act. The Court cannot decide on facts or interpretation of documents. A defect vitiating a settlement must vitiate the whole, not merely a part. A settlement partakes the nature of a negotiated contract with a "give and take." The settlement must fail or succeed as a whole, as partial acceptance is not envisaged under the Income Tax Act. The Court must defer to the statutory finality envisaged for settlement while exercising judicial review. The Writ Appeal was dismissed.
