..... in that a ground raised in the memorandum of appeal before the Tribunal was not at all considered by the Tribunal. Tribunal has not at all discussed that ground in its order and complete omission to discuss the ground set up in appeal is undoubtedly a mistake apparent from the record. Also see B. Karamchand Piarelal vs. ITO [2003 (12) TMI 262 - ITAT AMRITSAR] After considering the above submissions we are satisfied, that the 'addition ground raised' regarding excessiveness of the penalty levied u/s 271(1)(c) of the Act remained unadjudicated.

It is urged by learned standing counsel that the arguments were duly addressed before the Tribunal on this ground.
