It was submitted by ld CIT DR that the only issue in revenue’s appeal It was submitted by ld CIT DR that the only issue in revenue’s appeal It was submitted by ld CIT DR that the only issue in revenue’s appeal was against the actio was against the action of the ld CIT(A) in deleting the addition of n of the ld CIT(A) in deleting the addition of Rs.43,65,95,466/ Rs.43,65,95,466/- made under section 40(a)(ia) of the Act made under section 40(a)(ia) of the Act despite the fact
P a g e 1 | 3 that the assessee failed to comply with the provisions of section 201(1) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 read with Rule 31CACB of the Income Tax Rules, 1962.
Ld CIT DR submitted that the certificate mentioned in pages 6 being the certificate dated 28.3.2018 had not been produced before the Assessing Officer. It was the submission that consequently, this issue is liable to be restored to the file of the AO for fresh adjudication.
We have considered the rival submissions. We find no merits in the submission of ld CIT DR insofar as the ground raised by the revenue does not contain anything regarding violation of Rule 46A of the I.T.Rules, 1962. This being so, it is noticed that the ld CIT(A) has followed the decision of the Co-ordinate Bench of this Tribunal in assessee’s own case dated 7.1.2016 in for the assessment year 2009-10 in deleting the addition made by the Assessing Officer. We find no reason to interfere with the order of the ld CIT(A) and accordingly, uphold the same.
In the result, appeal of the revenue stands dismissed.
Order dictated and pronounced in the open court on 20/02/2023.
