..... balance amount of ₹ 35 lakhs as income of the assessee for the year under consideration. We are in agreement with the contention of the assessee that if ₹ 35 lakhs is taxed during the year consideration, then it would amount to double taxation as the assessee has shown the very same income in subsequent Assessment Year 2010-11, which has been accordingly taxed.
