Thus it is apparent that the levy of entry tax on cement in the impugned assessment order is against law but neither First Appellant Authority nor tribunal has considered this aspect and has wrongly upheld the assessment order passed under Entry Tax Act without application of mind. Learned counsel for the assessee contended that rate of entry tax on saria is 1% but Assessment Officer has levied entry tax on saria at the rate of 2%. The levy of entry tax at the rate of 2% is against Uttar Pradesh Governments' Notification No. KA.NI.-2-2757/XI-9(1)/08-U.P.Act-30-2007-Order-(31) 2008, but neither Tribunal nor First Appellate Authority has considered the said notificat .....

Thus it is clear that learned Tribunal has accepted rejection of books without considering relevant and important point raised by assessee. Assessee has shown his accepted turn over for the year 2006-07, 2007-08, 2008-09 and 2009-10 as follows:- 1. 2006-07 Rs. 98,28,337.24 2. 2007-08 Rs. 51,68,501.56 3. 2008-09 Rs. 20,78,008.59 4. 2009-10 Rs. 17,38,729.65 Perusal of impugned judgement of Tribunal shows that Tribunal has upheld turn over fixed by Assessment Officer on the ground that at the time of survey Jogesh employee of assessee informed that about 600 pipes are manufactured in a month.
