The learned CIT(A) is directed to pass a speaking order on this issue raised by the assessee. 6. From the above it is apparent that the Tribunal has not adjudicated ground No. 2 of Revenue's appeal. Learned counsel of the assessee pleaded that this issue is covered in favour of the assessee by Hon'ble Bombay High Court decision that disallowance under section 14A of the Act cannot be imported in section 115JB.
