The Assessing Officer has not made any adverse comments whatsoever on the merit of the above claims. Considering the voluminous details filed by the Ld AR during appellate proceedings and during remand proceedings before the Assessing Officer I find that appellant has discharged its onus regarding establishment of genuineness of the above expenditure.
