We heard both the parties at length and gone through the material available on record from which it appears that the assessees have not shown any withdrawal either for Grah Pravesh ceremony or for purchasing of the motor cycle. The withdrawal shown for the purpose of construction was already explained. There is no question to save any money from the cost of construction. In these circumstances, we agree with the orders of the lower authorities. Without repeating, the orders of the lower authorities are hereby sustained alongwith the reasons mentioned therein.” 4.
