It was noticed that the loans outstanding as per the balance sheet of the assessee, were secured and term loans amounting to ₹ 46,63,34,000/-. The Assessing Officer was of the view that these loans were taken to finance future assets of company. A query was raised to the assessee in this regard. In response to the query of the Assessing Officer, the assessee filed its reply vide letter dated 21.12.2011. Further, submission was made vide letter dated 23.12.2011 in this regard.

Subsequently, a remand report was sought from the AO on the evidences [being confirmation from parties] filed by the appellant. In the remand report, the AO prayed not to accept additional evidences and failed to give any comments on the merits of the issue as well as on confirmations submitted [Para 5.3 of CIT(A)'s order]. The assessee filed its response to the remand report vide reply dated 13-03-2015. 1.3 The Ld. CIT(Appeals) deleted the addition made by the AO towards balances of Symatic Engineering (P) Ltd (₹ 11,70,000/-) and Surya Industries (₹ 11,44,415/-) on the contention that the balances with respect to them are confirmed and verified and there is no basis to sustain the additions made by AO. [Para 5.5 at Pg. 4-5 of the CIT(A)'s order]. The addition on account of Clarke Energy Ltd. (₹ 2,57,41,795/-) was confirmed. 1.4 The Ld.

Relevant extracts of the CIT(Appeals)'s order is as under (Para 6.4, Page 9 of the CIT(A)'s order): In the light of these facts, computation made by the AD by considering the entire interest expenditure and the incorrect figure of the fixed assets and WIP is not in order. The correct computation would be as under: (Interest during the year x WIP)/WIP (1,05,40,065 x 22,69,56,000)/83,17,32,000 = ₹ 28,76,084/- As the appellant company has capitalised ₹ 26,74,988/- out of the interest payment during the year, the proportionate disallowance would work out to ₹ 2,01,096/- (28,76,084 - 26,74,988). The balance disallowance i.e. ₹ 1,49,86,193 - ₹ 2,01,096 = ₹ 1,47,85,097 is directed to be disallowed. 2.5 The CIT(Appeals) after due verification of the facts and documents, has recomputed the disallowance and granted partial relief to the assesse. Further, the error made by the AO in applying unscientific and baseless calculation of disallowance of interest was duly rectified. In the absence of any error in the calculation made by the Ld. CIT(Appeals), the grounds raised by the depar .....

The balance disallowance i.e. ₹ 1,49,86,193 - ₹ 2,01,096 = ₹ 1,47,85,097/- is directed to be deleted. This ground of appeal is partly ruled in favour of the appellant." 16. Ld.CIT(A) has pointed out that from the computation of interest disallowance, the AO had considered investment of ₹ 75,75,35,000/- against ₹ 83,17,32,000/-. This fact is not rebutted by the Revenue. It is seen that Ld.CIT(A) has computed the income at ₹ 28,76,084/- against computation made by the Assessing Officer at ₹ 1,49,86,193/-. The Revenue could not point out any error in the computation by Ld.CIT(A). Therefore, we do not see any infirmity into the finding of Ld.CIT(A), the same is hereby affirmed. Ground No.2 raised by the Revenue is, thus rejected. 17. Ground No.3 raised by the Revenue is against the deletion of disallowance made on account of short payment of TDS. 18. Ld.
