The Authorised Representative pleaded that the indexed cost of acquisition as per Explanation (iii) means the cost of the asset as on the date such asset was acquired/allotted, (which is clear from the phrase the Cost Inflation Index for the first year in which the asset was held by the assessee ) (emphasis mine) irrespective of the date on which the payments are made, that is, the actual cost of acquisition of the asset ought to be considered for the purpose of indexation, and not the payments made as per the payment schedule. It was particularly stressed during the course of hearing that each installment payment is only a part of the cost of the asset, and not the cost per se. 2.1.2 Further, this is not for th .....

It was further held by the Court that non-consideration of a decision of the jurisdictional Court or of Supreme Court can be said to be a mistake apparent from record which can be rectified under Section 254(2) of the Act. 7.
