PER DR. DIPAK P. RIPOTE, AM:
As per Form No.36 filed by Mr.Chandrakant Deshmukh, this is an appeal filed by the Assessee Mr.Chandrakant Deshmukh against the order of ld.Commissioner of Income
Tax(Appeal)[NFAC], passed under section 250 of the Act, dated
09.12.2024 emanating from Assessment Order u/s.143(3) of the Act.
The Assessee has raised the following grounds of appeal :
ITA No.984/PUN/2025 [A]
2
“The following grounds are taken without prejudice to each other-
On facts and circumstances and in law,
The Order under section 250 of the Income Tax Act. 1961 bearing order no ITBA/NFAC/S/250/2023-24/1055274563(1) dated
04/07/2024
passed by the Commissioner of Income Tax NFAC & further order passed for giving effect to the commissioner of income tax, NFAC,
Delhi's order under section 250 of the income tax Act 1961 Dated
09/12/2024, and order under section 143(3) of the Income Tax Act,
1961 dated 31.08.2022 passed by the learned Income Tax Officer, Ward
6(3), Pune is bad in law.
Without considering the facts and in the circumstances of the case and in law the learned the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeal), NFAC, has erred in passing an order having Order No. /DIN ITBA/NFAC/S/250/2023-24/1055274563(1) under section 250 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 dated 21/08/2023. & Order for giving effect to the commissioner of income tax, NFAC, Delhi's order under section 250 of the income tax act 1961. Dated 09/12/2024
3 The learned Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeal), NFAC and the Assessing Officer have erred in confirming/making the addition without considering the facts of the case, and provisions of section. In the given case The Commission expenses are related to Payment to Hospital ie.
Principal Healthcare & Wellness Pvt. Ltd. In the business of operating hospital under name and style "Jehangir Specialty Hospital", for giving them business. The same provision has been made as per agreement with them. Hence the same is valid claim and deductible expense.
4 The nature of expense is related to sales. It has been in accordance with agreement between parties. This is the allowable business expenditure under Section 37 of Income Tax Act, 1961 and cannot be disallowed. The Contract agreement between parties is attached for your reference (Annexure 1).
Due to financial loss and inadequate capital, we were planning to close down the operation so, we made provision of entire commission expense in the FY 2019-20. We were not in a position to identify actual amount of commission for the reasons:
A. Invoices are not raised by the other party to us as per agreement
B. There were differences with regard to sale return between parties hence not able to arrive at proper commission expense amount. Hence
ITA No.984/PUN/2025 [A]

provisional expense working is as under made on the basis of available data and claimed as expense in books of account. Disputed commission for FY 2017-18 hence rationally made provision in FY 2019-20. Particular
