The arguments of the assessee's representative on the applicability of proviso to Section 2 Clause (15), therefore, were strictly not required. They were not necessary for the decision on the point involved. Once on jurisdiction, the petitioner was on a sound footing, then, we do not think that the observations of the Tribunal would have any bearing on the assessments that have been framed for the same and subsequent assessment year.

That Appeal was dismissed by this Court on 14th February, 2017 (Annexure J ). 10. Though the Petition was filed accompanying the Appeal, but Mr. Sridharan would submit that any order and clarifying the position or keeping the contentions open would satisfy the petitioner. 11.

The Tribunal followed this view and then noted also the argument of the petitioner assessee that proviso to Section 2(15) is not attracted bearing in mind the objects and they being charitable in nature.
