In these matters the Revenue as well as assessee are aggrieved in some parts against the orders of the ITAT for assessment years 1999-2000 and 2000-01, 2001-02 and 2002-03. The question of law sought to be urged by the Revenue relates to the determination of the quantum of income attributed to India in respect of the assessee; the question of law sought to be urged by the assessee pertains to its chargeability to tax on the ground that it carries on business activities in India. . The Tribunal followed the previous order made by it in respect of the present assessee for the years 1995-96 to 1998-99. The appeals against that order were disposed of by a common judgment dated 25.02.2009 in ITA 1048/2008, 1049/2008, 1050/2008, 1051/2008, 1052/2008, 1053/2008, 1054/2008 and 1055/2008 and connected cases. It is not in dispute that appeals are pending by special leave before the Supreme Court against the judgment dated 25.02.2009, in Special Leave Petition No.35621/2009 and 25628/2008. The factual matrix being the same and the questions of law also being identical this Court disposes of these appeals in terms of the said judgment dated 25.02.2009. . . . . . S.
