The AAC, therefore, held that the assessee shall claim no deduction on account of liabilities payable to M/s. A.W. Figgis Co. Ltd. and the assets belonging to the estate included in the assessment too shall stand excluded from the wealth. He, therefore, directed the WTO to recompute the assessment accordingly.
