..... restrict the disallowance to 15% of cash payments made on account of such items of expenditure which have been considered by the Assessing Officer. Consistent with the view taken by this Tribunal for the other years noted above, and in the absence of any material to contradict the findings fo the CIT(A) brought on record by the Revenue, we find no infirmity in the impugned order of the CIT(A).
