25 - Appeals

In the case of Mafatlal Industries Ltd. [1996 (12) TMI 50 - SUPREME COURT OF INDIA], it was held that ordinarily, no assessee can be allowed to reopen proceedings that have been finally concluded against him on the basis of a favourable decision in the case of another assessee. This is because an order which has become final in the case of an assessee will continue to stand until it is specifically recalled or set aside in his own case.
