In view, of the above discussion, the disallowance made by the Assessing Officer, on account of the above prior period expenses to the tune of ₹ 1,94,34,645/- is directed to be deleted. With respect to the amount of ₹ 55,28,017/- pertaining to the Jodhpur unit, with respect to shuttering material, the explanation furnished by the appellant does not match the supporting order sheet entries submitted.

..... as claimed deduction u/s 80IA of the Act to the tune of ₹ 8,20,34,909/-. As the establishment and administrative expense were utilized for the entire business activities of the company which includes road bridge projects; as such the assessee was asked to show cause and explain as to why the establishment and administrative expense of ₹ 38,73,92,132/- should not be allocate proportionately to road/Bridge projects in proportion to their income of ₹ 23,00,24,830/- with total income of ₹ 64,78,66,500/- The assessee, in response to this query, made a detailed submission. However, the submissions of the assessee were not found acceptable by the AO. The AO, therefore, by relying on the provisions of section 80IA(5) allocated the direct expenses towards eligible units as well. The AO further observed that it is clear that many expenses of common nature i.e. head office and other dayto- day management and supervision expenses have not been apportioned amongst the unit claiming deduction u/s 80IA of the Act.
