There are three issues in this case, firstly, the assessee is aggrieved by the inclusion of freight in its turnover and avers that the freight was being born by the railways. The second issue raised by the assessee is that the Tribunal has wrongly rejected the evidence produced by the assessee and should have accepted its evidence towards 3D evidence as additional evidence under section 12B.
