Aggrieved by the relief granted by the CIT(A), Revenue is in appeal before us. 6. We heard both the parties and perused the material on record, including the orders of the lower authorities. We find that the CIT(A), while directing the assessing officer to determine the income of the assessee applying a rate of 8% on the gross receipts, followed the order of the Tribunal in assessee's own case for the assessment year 2004-05. A copy of the order of the Tribunal dated 24.10.2008, in ITA No. 522/Hyd/2008 of the Revenue and ITA No. 4 .....

If the same is considered, the percentage of profit for taxation must be much higher as assessed by the assessing officer. This aspect was not appreciated by the CIT(A). 13.
