The Tribunal held that the TPO's rejection of the most appropriate method for benchmarking royalty payments was not reasoned, and the issue had been decided in favor of the assessee in prior years. Regarding fixed assets, the Tribunal ruled that only depreciation on the asset should be considered for addition, not the entire difference between the transaction value and the ALP.
The Tribunal held that since the assessee's sales were treated as genuine, the corresponding purchases could not be entirely disallowed. However, a partial disallowance was sustained to account for potential inflation in purchases.
The Tribunal, referring to the decision of the Hon'ble Calcutta High Court in Sunil Kr. Agarwal Vs. CIT, held that while the value adopted by the Stamp Valuation Authority is deemed to be the full value of consideration under Section 48, if the assessee disputes this value, the AO should refer the capital asset to the Valuation Officer to determine the full value of consideration. Consequently, the Tribunal set aside the orders of the lower authorities and remitted the issue back to the file of the AO for fresh adjudication. The AO is directed to ascertain the full value of consideration from the Valuation Officer concerned and compute the long-term capital gain accordingly, in terms of Section 50C(3) of the Act. The appeal of the assessee was allowed for statistical purposes.
The Tribunal held that disallowance of interest expenditure should be done as per Section 14A read with Rule 8D, not Section 36(1)(iii). Following a previous decision on an identical issue, the Tribunal found the CIT(A)'s order fair and reasonable.

The Tribunal dismissed the appeal in limine. This was based on CBDT Circular No. 21 of 2015, which stated that appeals with a tax effect below Rs. 10,00,000/- are not maintainable, and this appeal did not fall under any exceptions.

Regarding advertisement expenses, the Tribunal followed a coordinate bench's decision, stating that TDS provisions do not apply to reimbursements where the original payer has deducted TDS.
The Tribunal held that rebate under Section 88E is allowable from income computed under Section 115JB, as Section 115JB(5) provides a saving clause for other provisions of the Act, including rebates. The decision followed a coordinate bench's ruling on an identical issue.
The Tribunal held that negative stock is an impossibility and stock can only be a positive figure or nil. It directed that negative stock values should be excluded in determining stock-in-trade, and the opening stock should also be computed accordingly. The Tribunal also held that the income from share trading is not speculative as the company's principal business is trading in shares.

The Tribunal held that the ALV should be computed at 8% of the cost as recorded in the assessee's books, following previous decisions. It also upheld the assessee's claim for deduction under Section 80IA(4), stating that losses and depreciation already set off in earlier years cannot be notionally brought forward and set off again.
The Tribunal noted that the quantum appeal regarding the Section 10A deduction was previously allowed in favor of the assessee. Therefore, the penalty levied under Section 271(1)(c) was deemed to have no basis and was deleted.
The Tribunal held that the appeal filed by the Revenue was not maintainable due to the low tax effect, as per the applicable CBDT circular. The appeal was dismissed as not pressed.
The Tribunal held that the AO's estimation of profit was based on guesswork without any concrete basis. The failure of creditors to appear did not automatically prove bogus transactions, and no evidence of false transactions was presented.
