Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, DELHI ‘G’ BENCH,

Before: SHRI N.K. BILLAIYA, & MS. ASTHA CHANDRA

For Appellant: Shri Hiren Mehta, CA
For Respondent: Shri H.K. Chaudhary, CIT- DR
Hearing: 31.03.2022Pronounced: 31.03.2022

PER N.K. BILLAIYA, ACCOUNTANT MEMBER:-

The above two separate appeals by the assessee are preferred

against two separate orders of the ld. CIT(A) - 40, Delhi dated

12.10.2018 pertaining to Assessment Years 2014-15 and 2015-16. Since

common grievance is involved in both these appeals, they were heard

together and are disposed of by this common order for the sake of

convenience and brevity.

2.

The common grievance in both these appeals relates to the

rejection of claim of the assessee for additional relief u/s 11(2) of the

Income-tax Act, 1961 [hereinafter referred to as 'The Act'], though the

quantum may differ.

3.

In Assessment Year 2014-15, the other ground relates to the

upholding of the action of the Assessing Officer in reducing the gross

sale consideration representing sale of value of fixed assets sold during

the year.

4.

At the very outset, the ld. counsel for the assessee drew our

attention to the order of the Chief Commissioner of Income Tax

[Exemptions], Delhi dated 18.12.2018 u/s 10(23C)(vi) and (via) of the

Act and pointed out that the CCIT[E] has approved the assessee for the

purpose of section 10(23C)(vi) of the Act from Assessment Year 2008-09

and onwards.

5.

Since the approval has been granted to the assessee from

Assessment Year 2008-09 onwards, the present grievance of the

assessee become otiose. The Assessing Officer is directed to examine

the issue afresh in light of the order of the CCIT[E].

6.

In the result, both the appeals of the assessee in ITA Nos. 19 &

20/DEL/2019 are allowed for statistical purposes as per our above

directions.

The order is pronounced in the open court on 31.03.2022.
