2011 (2) TMI 1567 - AT - Income Tax

Issues involved:
The first issue pertains to the addition made on account of the amount transferred to Transportation and Infrastructure Utilisation Fund (TIUF) and bank interest on TIUF Fund. The second issue involves the deletion of the addition on account of liability for leave encashment.

Issue 1: Addition on account of TIUF and bank interest:
The Revenue appealed against the order of the Ld. Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) regarding the addition made on account of TIUF and bank interest. The tribunal referred to previous decisions in the assessee's own case for earlier years and upheld the Ld. Commissioner's order, stating that the issue is covered in favor of the assessee based on past tribunal decisions. The tribunal found the facts in the present case to be identical to previous cases and decided the issue in favor of the assessee, in line with the judgments of the Hon'ble Apex Court.

Issue 2: Deletion of addition on leave encashment:
The second issue revolved around the deletion of the addition on account of liability for leave encashment. The Assessing Officer did not entertain the assessee's claim as it was not made in the return of income or through a revised return. However, the Ld. Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) allowed the claim by citing the decision of the Hon'ble Apex Court in the case of Bharat Earth Movers [2000] 245 ITR 428. The tribunal, after hearing both parties, concluded that the issue should be considered and remitted it back to the Assessing Officer for fresh consideration in light of the Hon'ble Apex Court decision.

In conclusion, the appeal filed by the Revenue was partly allowed for statistical purposes, with the tribunal upholding the Ld. Commissioner's decision on the TIUF issue and remitting the leave encashment issue back to the Assessing Officer for reconsideration.
