2011 (6) TMI 999 - AT - Income Tax

Summary

Issues involved: Miscellaneous application against the order of ITAT Chennai regarding assessment year 2005-06.

Summary:
The assessee filed a miscellaneous application against the ITAT Chennai's order for the assessment year 2005-06. The Tribunal had considered the decision of the Bombay High Court in the case of Godrej Boyce and had directed the Assessing Officer to re-compute the quantum of expenses in accordance with Rule 8D. However, since Rule 8D came into effect from 01-04-2007, the assessee argued that the issue should not have been restored to the Assessing Officer for re-adjudication. The Tribunal rectified the mistake and expunged the lines restoring the issue to the Assessing Officer. The assessee's application was allowed, and the order was pronounced on 24/06/2011.
