Therefore, it cannot be treated as income of the assessee. Therefore, the assessment order is not erroneous in so far as it is prejudicial to the interests of the Revenue. Hence, on both the counts, we hold that the order of the Ld. CIT under section 263 is not sustainable. - Decided in favour of assessee - ITA.No.224, 225/Hyd/2015 - - - Dated:- 20-1-2016 - SMT. P.

He observed that it is a capital subsidy and the amount was remitted to the company in two installments of ₹ 25 lakhs each during the F.Ys. 2006-07 and 2007-08 and the same was also reflected in the balance sheet for the years ending 31.03.2007 and 31.03.2008.

In support of this contention, he placed reliance upon the judgment of the Hon ble Bombay High Court in the case of CIT vs. Continental Warehousing Corporation (Nhava Sheva) Ltd., reported in 374 ITR 645 (Bom.)
