Issues involved: Appeal filed by Revenue against CIT(A) order for assessment years 2005-06 and 2006-07, cross objections by assessee, deduction u/s 10A, depreciation on UPS, disallowance u/s 40(a)(i), applicability of section 14A, telecommunication expenses u/s 10B.
Deduction u/s 10A: The Revenue challenged CIT(A)'s direction to recompute deduction u/s 10A by excluding telecom expenditure from export turnover. The Revenue appealed against a Special Bench decision. The CIT(A)'s decision was upheld as it followed the Special Bench decision. Depreciation on UPS: The Revenue disputed CIT(A)'s allowance of 80% depreciation on UPS instead of 25%. The co-ordinate Bench's decision in a similar case was cited, and the CIT(A)'s decision was confirmed based on this precedent. Disallowance u/s 40(a)(i): The Revenue objected to CIT(A)'s deletion of disallowance for payments to a UK company without TDS. The CIT(A) considered the non-taxability of the UK company's income in India and relied on a Supreme Court decision, leading to the confirmation of the CIT(A)'s decision. Applicability of section 14A: The Revenue contested CIT(A)'s restriction of expenditure for earning exempted income to 2% under section 14A. The case was to be re-adjudicated by the Assessing Officer following a Bombay High Court decision, resulting in partial allowance of the Revenue's appeal. Telecommunication expenses u/s 10B: Assessee's cross objections challenged the reduction of telecommunication expenses from export turnover u/s 10B. The issue was dismissed as it was covered by a Tribunal decision, confirming the CIT(A)'s order. The Revenue's appeal for 2005-06 was dismissed, while the appeal for 2006-07 was allowed for statistical purposes. The cross objections by the assessee were dismissed.
