Summary: Issue 1: Non-reduction of interest paid from interest received for deduction u/s 80IB The assessee contested the A.O.'s decision to exclude gross interest received for computing deduction u/s 80IB. The Tribunal, referencing ITAT Mumbai and Supreme Court rulings, directed the A.O. to exclude only net interest income for deduction purposes. The ground of appeal was allowed. Issue 2: Exclusion of amounts written back for deduction u/s 80IB The assessee challenged the non-grant of deduction u/s 80IB on amounts written back and assessed as income u/s 41(1). The Tribunal, following ITAT Hyderabad and Vishakhapatnam decisions, directed not to exclude the sum of Rs. 59,376/- for computing the deduction. The ground of appeal was allowed. Issue 3 & 4: Exclusion of trading profit for deduction u/s 80IB The assessee challenged the exclusion of trading profit for deduction u/s 80IB, arguing that the entire income arose from manufacturing surgical kits. The Tribunal held that the surgical kits, including assembled items, are manufactured products eligible for deduction u/s 80IB. The A.O.'s and CIT(A)'s exclusions were deemed unjustified. The grounds of appeal were allowed. Issue 5: Non-allowance of depreciation and expenses of Thapoda Unit The assessee contested the disallowance of depreciation and administrative expenses of Rs. 19,76,740/-. The Tribunal found no adverse observation regarding the expenses in the audited financial statements and directed the A.O. to delete the addition and grant further relief of Rs. 17,76,740/-. The ground of appeal was allowed. Issue 6: Sustaining part addition out of total addition made by A.O. out of claim of depreciation The assessee challenged the non-grant of depreciation on certain asset additions. The Tribunal, noting that the assets were used for business and recorded in regular books, directed the A.O. to grant depreciation as claimed. The ground of appeal was allowed. Issue 7: Addition out of sale commission expenses and non-admission of submissions and documents The assessee claimed relief on disallowed commission expenses. The Tribunal, considering the evidence of payment and TDS, found the disallowance unjustified. The ground of appeal was allowed. Issue 8: Surplus on sale of shares assessable as business income vs. capital gains The assessee contested the classification of surplus on share sales as business income. The Tribunal, referencing various judicial precedents, held that the surplus should be assessed as capital gains, not business income. The ground of appeal was allowed. Revenue's Appeal: The revenue challenged the CIT(A)'s direction to allow deduction u/s 80IB for Thapoda Unit's business income. The Tribunal upheld the CIT(A)'s decision, noting that the sales at Thapoda were for goods manufactured at Amravati and eligible for deduction u/s 80IB. The revenue's appeal was dismissed. Conclusion: The appeal filed by the assessee was partly allowed, and the appeal filed by the revenue was dismissed.
