What did the High Court hold?

The ITAT's order was in relation to appeal number ITA No. 1713/Hyd/2018 for the assessment year 2012-13.

The appellant also filed an interim application (IA No. 1 of 2024) seeking a stay on the collection of tax and penalty proceedings arising from the assessment order.
