JUDGMENT
This appeal has been admitted to consider the substantial questions of law at paras VI(1) and VI(3) framed in the appeal memorandum. However, learned Counsel for the revenue submitted that the appeal could be confined to consider only substantial question of law at para VI(2) framed in the appeal memorandum, which reads as under: "Whether, on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the Tribunal was justified in deleting the addition made under Section 40A(2) of the Act by holding that there is no reason to interfere with the findings of the CIT(A) that the assessee is having its own free fund which is sufficient for advance the interest free loan to the sister concern even though the assessee has diverted the funds which has been established by the assessing authority?"
The said submission is placed on record. Appeal is confined to substantial question of law No.VI(2). The
aforesaid issue being covered by the decision rendered by this Court in the case of CIT VS M/S. KBD SUGARS & DISTILLERIES LTD., in ITA No.170/2014 dated 14.12.2021, the said substantial question of law is answered in favour of the assessee and against the revenue.
Resultantly, the appeal stands dismissed.
