Issues involved:
The issues involved in this case are related to the eligibility of separate units of the assessee business to claim deduction u/s 80IB and the authority of the CIT(A) to direct the Assessing Officer to examine the eligibility of units within the prescribed time period u/s 80I(3). Eligibility of separate units for deduction u/s 80IB: The Appellate Tribunal noted that the CIT(A) allowed the claim of deduction u/s 80IB based on the Tribunal's order in the assessee's own case for the Assessment Years 2004-05 and 2005-06. The Tribunal highlighted that in previous decisions, it was established that treating each unit as independent for availing deduction u/s 80IB was justified. The Tribunal referenced a case involving a sister concern of the assessee where similar treatment was allowed, emphasizing that no new unit was introduced in the impugned assessment years to warrant a different approach. Therefore, the Tribunal decided in favor of the assessee, following precedent and finding no merit in the Revenue's appeals. Authority of CIT(A) to direct examination of units: The revenue raised concerns regarding the CIT(A) directing the Assessing Officer to examine whether the eligible units were within the reasonable time period prescribed u/s 80I(3). The revenue argued that this direction amounted to setting aside the order and exceeded the powers of the CIT(A). However, the Tribunal did not find merit in this argument and proceeded to dismiss the appeal of the revenue. In conclusion, the Appellate Tribunal upheld the decision in favor of the assessee based on previous rulings and dismissed the revenue's appeal.
