THIS APPEAL COMING ON FOR ORDERS THIS DAY, JAYANT PATEL J., DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
JUDGMENT
The appellants-Revenue has preferred the present appeal by raising the following substantial question of law:
"Whether, on the facts and in the circumstances
3 of the case, the Tribunal is justified in law by directing the Assessing Officer to reduce the expenditure incurred in foreign currency, both from the Export turnover as well as the Total turnover for the purpose of computation of deduction under section 10A of the Act without appreciating the fact that the statute allows exclusion of such expenditure only from the Export Turnover by way of specific definition of Export Turnover as envisaged by sub-clause (4) of Explanation 2 below sub-section 8 of section 10A. On the other hand, there is no specific provision in section 10A warranting exclusion of above expenses from Total Turnover also"?
The learned Counsel for the appellants-Revenue has fairly conceded that the matter is covered by the decision of this Court in the case of Commissioner of Income Tax And Another Vs. Tata Elxsi Ltd., reported at (2012) 349 ITR 98 (Karn.).
4 3. When the matter is already covered by the above referred decision of this Court, we do not find that any substantial question of law would arise for consideration.
Hence, the appeal is dismissed.
