Rectification under section 254(2) is confined to obvious, patent and self-evident mistakes on the record, and cannot be used to reopen the merits or seek review of an earlier appellate order. The Tribunal held that the Revenue's complaint of non-consideration of authorities and instructions was, in substance, an attempt to reargue the matter and revisit the decision, not a true rectifiable error. It also noted that a similar contention had already been rejected in an earlier miscellaneous application. The miscellaneous application was therefore found to be without merit and dismissed as an impermissible review request.
