Since the assessee has already offered the income being the interest received from the firm in the return of income filed, therefore, addition of the same again amounts to double addition. We, therefore, set aside the order of the learned CIT (A) on this issue and direct the Assessing Officer to delete the addition. So far as the profit from the firm is concerned, the assessee has already claimed the same as exempt u/s 10(2A) of the Act. Since the share of profit from the firm is exempt u/s 10(2A) of the Act, therefore, we modify the order of the learned CIT (A) and direct the Assessing Officer to delete the addition. Grounds of appeal No.1 3 raised by the assessee are accordingly allowed. - ITA Nos.553 & 554/Hyd/2021 - - - .....

..... sessee has not furnished reply till date. Hence, the amount of Rs. 80,592/- is added to income returned as unexplained credit. 4.2 In view of the above, an amount of Rs. 80,592/- is added u/s. 68 of the IT Act. 4.3 Penalty proceedings u/s. 271(1)(c) read with Explanation 1 are initiated for concealment of income particulars.

Before the learned CIT (A), the assessee submitted that the assessee has already declared the interest on capital from the partnership firm in the return of income and the share of profit from the firm is exempt u/s 10(2A) of the Act.

We find the learned CIT (A) although directed the assessee to furnish the details of share of profit at Rs.16,534/- and directed the Assessing Officer to consider the same and allow the addition, however, sustained the addition of Rs.64,508/- on the ground that the interest received from the firm on the capital deployed in the firm by the Partner has to be taxed in the hands of the Partner.

The learned Commissioner (Appeals) as well as the Assessing Officer overlooked the fact that the said amount of interest from the firm of M/s. Service Station Naraspur, in which the Appellant is a partner, amounting to Rs.80,592/-was already included in the income returned by the Appellant in the original return filed and also, in the return filed in response to notice u/s.153A . Hence, the double taxation of the same amount by way addition to the income returned is superfluous and is impermissible both in law and on facts as explained both before the Assessing Officer and the Lea .....
