It shows there is incorrect calculation made by the AO showing total disallowance as ₹ 23,51,799/- instead of ₹ 10,67,766/-.

Thus, we deem it proper to remand the issue to the file of AO for computing the disallowance of expenditure relating to the investments yielded exempt income. The assessee is liberty to file evidences, if any, in support of his claim. Thus, ground Nos. 4 and 5 raised by the assessee are allowed for statistical purpose. ITA No. 2358/PUN/2017 10.

Both sides are unanimous in stating that the issue raised in the appeal and the facts in ITA No. 2358/PUN/2017 are identical to ITA No. 1454/PUN/2017. Since, the fact .....
