The Assessee has taken following grounds of appeal:- “1 The assessment order passed u/s 154 of Income Tax Act by the Assessing Officer and confirmed by the first appellate authority u/s 250 is bad in law and deserved to be uncalled for.
2 The assessing officer as well as first appellate authority has erred in law and on facts in making the addition of Rs. 20,63,673/- by disallowing the depreciation claim. The same deserves to be deleted.”
At the time of hearing before us, the ld. Counsel for the assessee submitted that the claim of depreciation for which the assessee is eligible has been allowed in the preceding year as well as in the succeeding year. It was submitted that the depreciation was not allowed owing to mistake in the claim of depreciation. Hence, the matter is remanded to the Assessing Officer to examine the claim of depreciation considering the fact of allowing the same in the earlier and succeeding years, and to pass an order under Section 154 in accordance with the provisions of the Income-tax Act.
In the result, the appeal of the Assessee is allowed for statistical purposes.
The order is pronounced in the open Court on 22.11.2024
