2.5 The Hyderabad Tribunal in Srinivas Sasidhar Chaganty Vs. ITO
[supra] has taken a view that the period of limitation was to be reckoned
from the end of the month in which the order was passed / uploaded on the
website. However, we have already noted that in terms of Rule 35 of
Income Tax (Appellate Tribunal Rules), 1963, the order was to be
communicated to the respective parties and uploading of the order on the

trigger the start of limitation period against the respective parties.
