2015 (12) TMI 1509 - HC - Income TaxMaintainability of appeal under Section 260A - whether the Tribunal was right in rejecting the reference application filed by the department, though as per rule 45 of Appellate Tribunal Rule 1962, the tribunal may send the statement to the High Court without annexures? - Held that:- The impugned order has not been passed in appeal by the Tribunal but consequent to the order of this Court dated 2nd February, 1999 allowing the Revenue's application under Section 256(2) of the Act. Therefore, the impugned order has been passed consequent to the order dated 2nd February, 1999 of this Court in advisory jurisdiction. The impugned order of the Tribunal is not in exercise of its appellate jurisdiction for it to be an order amenable to appeal under Section 260A of the Act. The order passed by the Tribunal consequent to the order passed under Section 256(2) of the Act is not an order passed in Appeal by the Appellate Tribunal. An application under Section 256(2) of the Act and the order passed by this Court thereunder are in the exercise of its advisory jurisdiction. Therefore, any grievance of the parties in respect of the Tribunal, not complying with the order of this Court for whatever reason could not be remedied by an Appeal under Section 260A of the Act. Thus Appeal as filed from the impugned order is not maintainable under Section 260A of the Act.
