Subsequently, the case was selected for scrutiny under CASS and notice u/s.143(2) of the Act was issued. In compliance to notice, the ld. Authorised Representative of the assessee appeared from time to time and furnished information. The ld. Assessing Officer found that assessee has claimed deduction u/s.80IB of the Act were the assessee is having two units (i) Aluminum Alloy Ingot Plant (ii) Aluminum Paste Unit VI and while claiming deduction u/s.80IB of the Act the assessee has not set off loss of Aluminum alloy Ingot plant and claimed deduction on positive income but the ld. Assessing Officer found that as per the earlier order of assessee's own case for assessment year 2006-07, the aggregate of two units has to be considered for claiming deduction u/s.80IB of the Act and relied on the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) order, and made disallowance of Rs. 1,10,37,553/-.

Therefore, each undertaking had to be considered separately for working out deduction u/s.80IA of the Act, since, the gross total income was positive. We are of the opinion that the CIT(A) was justified in giving such directions. 5.3 Thus the issue is squarely covered by the above order of Hon'ble ITAT in Appellants own case for earlier years which is in its favour. The addition is deleted''. Following the above decisions, the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) has deleted the addition. Aggrieved by the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) order, the Revenue assailed an appeal before the Tribunal. 5. Before us, the ld. Departmental Representative vehemently argued that the ld. Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) erred in deleting the addition without considering the facts and the decision of Apex Court. The gross total income shall be arrived after adjustment of loss of other division against profit derived from industrial undertaking and prayed for allowing the appeal . 6. The ld.

Only if resultant gross total income was positive, an assessee was entitled for deduction under Chapter VIA of the Act. However, where assessee is having more than one unit, where one unit is eligible for deduction and other unit or units are not eligible for deduction and if the gross total income is positive, despite the loss in one of such units, decisions of Hon'ble Apex Court in the case of IPCA Laboratories Ltd. (supra) and Synco Industries Ltd. (supra) would have not much applicability. In such cases, where an assessee is carrying on various activities, even if centralized accounts are maintained, so long as interlacing, interconnectivity or interdependence of various units was not there, various activities have to be treated as separate and distinct, as held by Hon'ble Apex Court in the case of Water Fall Estates Ltd. v. CIT (219 ITR 563). Hon'ble Apex Court in the case of L.M. Chhabda & Sons. v.
