Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Nov-11-2014

1. Mr . Jetly submits that substantial question of law arises for determination and consideration, in the light of the Tribunal's order impugned in this Appeal.

The penalties have been set aside because of the fact that this sole proprietary concern has been already penalized.
