What is Udhavdas Kewalram v. CIT authority for?

The Income-tax Appellate Tribunal performs a judicial function under the Indian Income-tax Act, invested with authority to finally determine all questions of fact. When deciding an appeal, the Tribunal must consider all material facts with due care, record findings on all contentions, and maintain a judicial balance between the revenue and taxpayer claims. The power to condone delay by enacting section 5 of the Limitation Act of 1963 enables courts, including the Tribunal, to do substantial justice, with "sufficient cause" being an elastic expression.
