So far as the balance of ₹ 99.10 lacs is concerned, a perusal of the paper book shows that the assessee has offered the same as remission/cessation of liability in A.Y. 2013-14 and has paid the taxes accordingly. Since, the assessee has offered this amount as its income in subsequent year if the disallowance is sustained during the year under consideration, it would amount to double taxation of the same amount. Therefore, in our understanding of the fact, this disallowance cannot be sustained. We, accordingly, modify the findings of the ld.

The ld. counsel brought to our notice that out of the balance of ₹ 1.45 crores, the assessee has paid ₹ 45.90 lacs to Rama Realty as on 31.03.2012. The ld. counsel further stated that the amount of ₹ 99.10 lacs has been treated as income for A.Y. 2013-14 on which taxes have been paid, as ₹ 99.10 lacs was never paid to Rama Realty and, therefore, the same has been offered by the assessee itself as income from subsequent assessment year. 12.
