Issues involved: Appeal by revenue and Cross-objection by assessee against order of CIT(A) regarding additions of selling expenses, disallowance of Employee's/Employer's contribution u/s 43B, and TDS credit.
Additions of Selling Expenses: The assessee had incurred advertisement expenditure which was partially disallowed by the Assessing Officer. The Tribunal noted similar disallowances in earlier years, where the first appellate authority had deleted the additions. Referring to previous Tribunal decisions, it was found that no infirmity existed in the order of the first appellate authority. Thus, the appeal of the revenue on this issue was dismissed. Disallowance of Employee's/Employer's Contribution u/s 43B: The Tribunal considered the proviso added to sec. 43B by the Finance Act, 2003, and the dates of deposit during relevant months. It was observed that the amounts were paid by the assessee before the due date, supported by evidence. Various legal precedents were cited in favor of the assessee, and the Tribunal affirmed the stand of the CIT(A), dismissing the revenue's appeal on this issue. TDS Credit: The revenue contended that no opportunity was given to the Assessing Officer for verification regarding TDS credit. However, it was found that necessary details were furnished by the assessee along with returns, and the TDS was deducted on interest income credited to the Profit & Loss Account. The factual finding was not disputed by the revenue, leading to the dismissal of the revenue's appeal on this ground. Conclusion: Both appeals of the revenue and the Cross-objection of the assessee were dismissed. The Tribunal pronounced the order in open court on 9th December 2010, in the presence of counsel from both sides.
