However, we notice that in the immediate previous AY, i.e. AY 2008-09, income of the assessee was estimated @ 2% and there is no change in the business model, in our considered view, AO cannot increase the rate of estimation without any major deviation in the business model of the assessee. Therefore, we are inclined to accept the findings of ld. CIT(A) and accordingly, upholding the order of CIT(A), we dismiss the grounds raised by the revenue. - ITA No. 461/Hyd/2019 - - - Dated:- 31-7-2019 - SMT. P. MADHAVI DEVI AND SHRI S.

Aggrieved by the order of AO, the assessee preferred an appeal before the CIT(A) and submitted before the CIT(A) as under: In the matter of this appeal, the assessee is disputing of the estimate of rate of profit adopted by the AO. The work on the project has been continuing from the earlier years. For the immediately preceding assessment year 2008-09 profit rate @2% has been adopted by the AO.

As a result, the grounds raised in this regard are allowed. 5. Aggrieved by the order of CIT(A), the revenue is in appeal before us raising the following grounds of appeal: 1. The CIT(A) erred in directing the AO to estimate income at 2% instead of 5% of gross receipts without any basis whereas as per section 44AD, where no books of accounts were maintained, the income is to be estimated @ 8% of gross receipts. 2.
