behalf of respondent/assessee, says that the decision of this Court dated 02.08.2017 rendered in ITA No. 597/2017 titled Pr. Commissioner of Income Tax-11 vs Indian Farmers & Fertilizers Co-operative Ltd. concerning AY 2010-11 covers the issues raised in the instant appeal as well. 4. What is not in dispute is that via the said judgment, the coordinate bench concluded that no substantial questions of law arise for consideration regarding the order dated 19.09.2016 passed by the Tribunal. 5. We may note that Mr Mayank Nagi, learned counsel, who appears on behalf of respondent/assessee, has brought to our notice the judgment of the Supreme Court rendered in Principal Commissioner of Income Tax-10 vs. Krishak Bharti Cooperative Ltd. 2023 SCC OnLine SC 1167. 5.1 It is submitted by Mr Nagi that via the aforementioned judgment, the Supreme Court dealt with a bunch of appeals including Civil Appeal No. 4647/2018, which was an appeal preferred against the aforementioned judgment of the coordinate bench. 5.2 Mr Nagi says that the Supreme Court has ruled in favour of the respondent/assessee while dismissing the appeals preferred by the appellant/revenue. 6 Having regard to the aforesaid, we are of the view that since the proposed questions of law even according to the appellant/revenue stand covered against them, no purpose would be served in entertaining the appeal. 7. Accordingly, the appeal is closed since no substantial questions of law arise for consideration. Digitally Signed By:VAISHALI CHAUHAN Signing Date:08.12.2023 12:09:49 Signature Not Verified
