The appellant craves leave for reserving the right to amend, modify, alter, add or forego any ground(s) of appeal at any time before or during the hearing of this appeal." 2. Brief facts are: The assessee company, incorporated on 28/1/1995, is engaged in the business of trading of medical diagnostics kits, instruments, health care products, reagents and bio chemistry products etc. During assessment proceedings the AO noticed that the assessee has shown commission payment of Rs. 52,51,743/- & g.p. rate of 25.02% on turn over of Rs. 4,95,86,142/- in A.Y. 2006-07 as against commission payme .....

Thus the evidence of services rendered has also been given. The services of the agents included first of all booking of sales and then approval of the product and then arranging the payments.

Therefore, we are of the view that the learned CIT(A) has considered the facts in entirety and came to the right conclusion that the whole of the commission was deductible in computing the income.

This finding is equally applicable to the facts of assessment year 2008-09, in which disallowance of a smaller sum of Rs. 5 lacs was made by the Assessing officer.
