It held that the obligation to approach the Appellate Tribunal for drawing up a 'statement of case' for the High Court's consideration is a prerequisite, and appeals directly instituted without this step would not be maintainable. The hierarchy of remedies under the Act requires the assessee to first appeal to the Appellate Tribunal, and then approach the High Court by establishing a 'substantial question of law.'
