Also, the addition was made on the same issue as mentioned in the CASS reason within the purview of limited scrutiny. Hence, the fact presented before the Hon'ble B Bench of the tribunal has been found misleading as it is amply clear that the addition was made on the issue mentioned in the CASS reason and there is no deviation from the CBDT instruction by the AO in framing the assessment. 7.

In exercise of powers under section 254(2) of the Act, the Tribunal may amend any order passed by it only to rectify any mistake apparent from the record. The Tribunal cannot revisit its earlier order and go into details on merit, which is beyond the scope and ambit of the power conferred under section 254(2) of the Act. 8.

The mere fact that the tribunal had not allowed a deduction, even if the conclusion is wrong, will be no ground for moving an application under section 254(2) of the Act. Further, in the garb of an application for rectification, the assessee cannot be permitted to reopen and re-argue the whole matter, which is beyond the scope of the section." 11.
