In respect of dal and the bye products were at the rate of 9.5%. It is difficult to understand the methodology adopted by th8e AO because while working the actual yield he has worked out consumption of mung after deducting wastage in weight and thus net amount use for consumption was 94824.39 kgs. However, while working out the excess shortage, he has taken the g ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X .....

CIT(A) has deleted such additions vide his order dated 5.12.2003 in appellant s own case. In view of the above facts, addition made by the AO is directed to be deleted . 8.
