The subject matter of the appeal pertains to the Assessment year 2010-11. The appeal was admitted by a bench of this Court vide order dated 01.03.2017 on the following substantial questions of law: (i) Whether, on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the Tribunal was right in holding that, unaccounted money, found during the search proceedings and explained as on money received, are eligible for deduction under Section 80IB(10) of the Act?
(ii) Whether, on the facts and in the
circumstances of the case, that the Tribunal was right in holding that, transactions entered into, with the buyers of flats, are eligible for deduction, even though there is violation of the sub-Sections(e) and (f) of Section 80IB(10), on the ground that these transactions were entered into before the amendments to sub-Section (3) and (f) of Section 80IB(10)?
For the reasons assigned by us in the order passed today in I.T.A.No.307/2015, the substantial questions of law are answered against the revenue and in favour of the assessee.
