He, however, admitted the additional ground and directed the Assessing Officer to verify from the TDS Wing to establish whether the payers actually deducted the tax and/or filed the TDS return or not. If yes, the Assessing Officer is directed to give full credit of the TDS made on the basis of such verification report from the TDS Wing of the Income-tax Department. CIT(A) in the alternative has directed the Assessing Officer that in case, the credit for TDS cannot be made, at least the corresponding receipts should be reduced so that only the net receipts credited in the bank account be treated as the gross receipts on which the assessee may agree to pay the taxes again, can be .....

We also find force in the direction of the CIT(A) which is considered to be last resort as in those directions CIT(A) has directed the Assessing Officer to treat the net receipts credited in the bank as gross receipt and compute the tax liability thereon. Therefore, we confirm the order of the CIT(A). Accordingly, the appeal of the assessee as well as the revenue ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X
