We are of the considered view that the A.O should assess the capital gain at 1/3rd as shown by the assessee and delete rest of the addition. In view thereof, we set aside the order of the ld. CIT(A) and restore the matter to the file of the A.O with a direction to give effect to our order as per terms aforestated.

It was noted on the de .....
