Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, INDORE BENCH, INDORE
Before: SHRI VIJAY PAL RAO & SHRI B.M. BIYANI
आदेश / O R D E R
Per B.M. Biyani, A.M.:
Feeling aggrieved by appeal-order dated 08.02.2023 passed by learned Commissioner of Income-Tax (Appeals)-NFAC, Delhi [“CIT(A)”], which in turn arises out of rectification-order dated 31.03.2021 passed by learned DCIT/ACIT-4(1), Indore [“AO”] u/s 154 of Income-tax Act, 1961 [“the Act”] for Assessment-Year [“AY”] 2014-15, the revenue has filed this appeal.
Heard the learned Representatives of both sides and perused the orders of lower-authorities carefully. For the relevant AY 2014-15 under Page 1 of 7

consideration, the assessee’s case was selected under scrutiny and the AO
issued statutory notices u/s 143(2)/142(1) from time to time which were
duly complied by assessee. Ultimately, the AO passed assessment-order u/s
143(3) on 29.12.2016. Subsequently, the AO rectified the said assessment-
order u/s 154 vide order dated 31.03.2021 whereby he disallowed
depreciation of Rs. 6,32,96,126/-, which was allowed in scrutiny-
assessment, on the premise that the assessee had not submitted any
evidence of additions in fixed assets. Aggrieved, the assessee carried matter
in first-appeal and argued that the impugned disallowance made by AO was
not an apparent mistake; it is a debatable issue which is outside the ambit
and scope of section 154. The Ld. CIT(A), after a careful consideration,
accepted contention of assessee and deleted the disallowance made by AO.
Now, the revenue has come in next appeal assailing the order of CIT(A).
At first, we extract the order of CIT(A) for an immediate reference:
“5. Decision I have gone through the grounds of appeal, statement of facts, submissions of the Appellant, order passed u/s 154 of the Act and have considered the facts and evidences on record.

Thus, the CIT(A) has held that the issue of depreciation taken up by
AO for rectification was a debatable issue and hence outside the scope of
section 154. Learned DR appearing for appellant/revenue has understood
this legal point quickly and could not point out any mistake in the order of
CIT(A). In that view of matter, we hardly find any mistake in the order of
CIT(A) so as to warrant our interference. The same is therefore upheld and
the revenue’s appeal is dismissed being devoid of any merit.
Resultantly, this appeal is dismissed.
Order pronounced in open court immediately on conclusion of hearing and subsequently reduced in writing on the same day
