Therefore, in our considered view there is a mistake in the impugned order to the extent of not considering the decisions relied upon by the assessee. Constructed area - Finding of the Tribunal is not based on the constructed area but only for recording the complete facts the percentage of the construction was mentioned in the impugned order.

Particularly in the context of the fact of the adjacent plots and the land of one plot being opportunent to the land of the other plot No. 4 where construction is admitted.

However, there is absolutely no whisper of such contention and the ITAT Jaipur decision in the entire subjected order. 3.3. Mistake 3:- The Hon ble ITAT at page 5 para 2.4 has observed that: The other three separate adjacent plots No. 1,2 and 3 measuring 492.75 sq. yards, 486 sq. yards and 480.33. sq. yards (totalling to 1459.08 sq. yards) respectively are vacant and these are not being used by the assessee.

CIT (A) were also relied upon before the Hon ble ITAT. 3.5Mistake 5: Lastly, decisions were cited also on the point of a liberal interpretation of incentive position because in this case, the eligibility of the assessee stood proved therefore, the incentive provisions were to be interpreted liberally while applying the same.

DR has submitted that the relied sought by the assessee in the miscellaneous application does not fall in the category of rectification of mistake apparent on record U/s 245(2) of the Act. The assessee is seeking review of the decision taken by the Tribunal on merits which is not permissible. 5. Having considered the rival submissions as well as relevant material on record we note that the assessee has relied upon by the various decisions as reiterated in the miscellaneous application. As regard mistake no. 1 the copies of the decisions relied upon by assessee are also on record of the appeal file and those decisions have some relevance on th .....
