(iii) Whether on the facts and circumstances of the case, the Hon'ble ITAT was justified in law as well as in fact upholding the finding of the CIT (Appeals) that the transaction of Rs. 1,00,00,000/- could not be categorized as cessation of liability in terms of provisions of Section 41(1) of the Act without appreciating the fact that the assessee compan .....

While the assessing officer proceeded to make an addition of aforesaid Rs. 100,00,000/- under Section 41 of the Act, upon appeal, CIT (Appeals) called for a remand report from the assessing officer.

Then instead of receiving full value of goods sold by it to M/s Widecom Group INC., the assessee passed entries in its books of account and thus recovered its money from the said purchaser through transfer of the share application money Rs. one crore to its general account evidenced by proper entries recorded in its books of account. It thus adjusted the credit entry arising on account deposit of Rs. one crore by M/s Widecom Group INC. against share application against the price of goods sold by it to M/s Widecom Group INC. Thus, looked at from the assessee's perspective, it is a case of discharge of liability and not cessatio ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X
