What did the High Court hold?

The High Court dismissed the appeal filed by the Revenue. The Court's decision was based on the concession made by the Revenue's counsel. The Revenue fairly stated that the present controversy was covered by a previous decision of the same High Court in ITA No. 1135/2010 (Commissioner of Income Tax Vs. Rhoit Anand), decided on August 16, 2010. In that prior case, the High Court had affirmed the order passed by the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal and dismissed the Revenue's appeal. Therefore, following the precedent set by its own earlier judgment, the High Court dismissed the present appeal and the accompanying application. No order as to costs was made. The specific findings of the ITAT or the prior authorities are not detailed in this order, as the appeal was decided on the basis of the conceded position.
