From these observations of the Tribunal, it is evident that this Tribunal has held assessment order to be erroneous and prejudicial to the interests of the Revenue and has upheld the order of the Ld.

..... e of the same, the Ld. CIT(A) confirmed the order of the A.O. by following the decision of this Tribunal in ITA.No.751/Hyd/2011 Dated 31.08.2012 and dismissed assessee's appeal.

..... , the Ld. CIT has committed an error in not directing the A.O. to verify the details before making any addition. He has submitted that the Tribunal has taken note of the final directions given by the Ld.CIT to redo the assessment and under the impression that the A.O. would verify the details before re-doing the assessment, has dismissed assessee's appeal against the order under section 263. Thus, according to him, the Tribunal though has dismissed the appeals, ought to have taken note of contradictory stand of the Ld.

To that effect, according to him, there is a mistake apparent in the order of the Tribunal. The Ld. Counsel .....
