The Tribunal held that the CIT(A)'s direction to the AO to verify if deductions were claimed in earlier years was insufficient. The Tribunal modified the direction, ordering the AO to determine if any benefit was obtained by the assessee from the amount written off, in accordance with Section 41(1).
