Thus, learned Departmental Representative has submitted that the assessee failed to furnish requisite details in support of the claim before the AO in the proceedings u/s 154, whereas before CIT(A), assessee has filed new evidence in support of the claim which was accepted by the CIT(A) without giving an opportunity to AO.
