Judgment text as reported

The COMMISSIONER INLAND REVENUE VS MEKOTEX (PVT.) LIMITED Earlier decision of a Bench of equal numeric strength---Precedential value---Earlier decision of a bench of a High Court, or of the Supreme Court, on a question of law is binding on another bench of equal numeric strength when dealing with the same question, in the sense that the latter bench cannot decide the same question contrary to the first decision---However, the latter bench is not precluded from examining the correctness of the earlier decision or forming a different view---In such a case, the proper course of action is to refer the matter to the Chief Justice of the High Court, or in the case of the Supreme Court to the Bench-Constitution Committee, with a request for the constitution of a larger bench to examine the correctness of the earlier decision and, if necessary, to reconsider and redecide the question.
