Vs ITO TDS Ward-59(4) in favour of the assessee. He thus failed to distinguish the judgment on fact and on law while disapplying the same. Taking into consideration of the case made out by the assessee, the judgments as well, we allow the ground of appeal preferred by the assessee by deleting the addition of ₹ 1,00,208/- as made by the authorities below.
