Issues:
1. Valuation of closing stock 2. Allowability of MODVAT credit Valuation of Closing Stock: The revenue appealed against the ld. CIT(A)'s decision on the re-computation of closing stock value. The Assessing Officer had disallowed MODVAT credit claimed by the assessee, stating it is only allowable upon the production of excisable goods. The ld. CIT(A) directed a re-computation under section 145A, considering the guidance note and consistent accounting practices of the assessee. The ITAT found that the Assessing Officer failed to adjust the opening stock of raw materials, leading to an incorrect application of section 145A. The ITAT upheld the ld. CIT(A)'s decision, emphasizing the need for correct valuation of stock as per section 145A, which requires adjustments based on the method of accounting regularly employed by the assessee. Allowability of MODVAT Credit: The revenue also contested the deletion of an addition under the head car hire charges. The ld. CIT(A) found the Assessing Officer's disallowance to be based on a misinterpretation of evidence presented by the assessee. The ITAT agreed with the ld. CIT(A), stating that the addition was wrongly made and should be deleted. The ITAT concluded that both issues raised by the revenue lacked merit, and the appeal was dismissed accordingly.
