..... thod of DCF by holding that the actual Revenues varied from the projected Revenues for the four Assessment Years. Admittedly, when a projected value is taken, it is an estimate. The variation in the estimate is also less than 10%. Therefore, it cannot be said that the projected revenues are fabricated or manipulated. Further, the fact that the assessee has adopted a method prescribed under the Act and no error in respect of the said method has been specifically pointed out. Just because, there is a minor variation in the estimate, that method cannot be rejected. This being so, we find no reason to interfere in the order of the Ld.CIT(A) on this issue as recorded. - Decided in favour of assessee. Inordinate delay in service of the Ass .....

This is accepted method of valuation and the said method of valuation does provide for estimation. The AO has adopted the NAM and for the purpose of the same has proceeded to re-value the assets of the assessee being the valuation of the land. The AO has discarded the assessee s method of DCF by holding that the actual Revenues varied from the projected Revenues for the four Assessment Years. Admittedly, when a projected value is taken, it is an estimate. The variation in the estimate is also less than 10%. Therefore, it cannot be said that the projected revenues are fabricated or manipulated. Further, the fact that the assessee .....
