The fourth ground raised before us is that the AAC has failed to specify the particular sub-section of s. 35(1)(b) under which such items are admissible for weighted deduction. It is true that no particular sub-section has been referred to in the appellate order (Even in the assessment order it is not so indicated under what sub-section it was claimed and refused).

Further, in the assessment order for 1973-74, passed only two days after the assessment order for 1972-7 .....

Other wise the ITO would not have come to the conclusion that these persons are assisting the assessee in getting the orders from foreign countries. The departmental representative did not explain to us any other mode of assistance rendered by the two persons to the assessee and on which the ITO came to the conclusion that the persons are assisting the assessee so that we can come to a conclusion that the finding of the ITO that these place are assisting the assessee was based on some other method of work not falling under s. 35B(1)(b)(ii) or 35B(1)(b)(v).
