What were the issues?
Whether the PCIT was justified in invoking Section 263 when the AO had made inquiries and accepted the assessee's claims, and whether the AO's order was indeed erroneous and prejudicial to revenue.
Which sections of the Income-tax Act were involved?
Section 263,Section 143(3),Section 80JJAA,Section 36(1)(vii),Section 36(1)(viia)
