1.

By way of this miscellaneous application, the revenue seeks our indulgence in Tribunal order passed in captioned appeal on 10-05-2024. In the order, the bench granted exemption u/s 11 /12 to the assessee by condoning delay of 3 days in filing of Audit Report in Form No.10B. In the application, it has been submitted that as per extant CBDT Circulars, the assessee was required to file condonation application before appropriate authority and the Tribunal has erred in condoning the delay. However, Ld. AR brought on record a fact that the assessee does not hold relevant registration for this year to lay claim on the aforesaid deduction u/s 11 / 12. Accordingly, Ld. AR fairly submitted that the order may be recalled. At the same time, Ld. AR pleaded that the income was to be computed on net basis after allowing expenditure. For the same, Ld. AR referred to newly introduced sub-section (10) in Sec.13 by Finance Bill, 2022 governing computation of income under these circumstances.

2.

Considering the rival submissions, we recall Tribunal order passed in captioned appeal on 10-05-2024 and restore the appeal back to its original status. The application stand allowed. 3. With the consent of both the sides, the appeal was taken up for hearing and final disposal. Accepting the limited prayer of Ld. AR, we restore the issue of computation of income back to the file of Ld. CIT(A) with a direction to the assessee to substantiate its claim. For computation of income, guidance may be taken from newly introduced provisions as cited by Ld. AR. No other ground has been urged in the appeal. The appeal stand partly allowed for statistical purposes. 4. The misc. application stand allowed. The appeal stand partly allowed for statistical purposes. Order pronounced on 20th September, 2024.
