..... r A.Y. 2010-11 in the books of account and considering the fact that the project undertaken by the assessee comes under deduction of Section 80IB(10) of the Act, 1961, there was no intention on the part of the assessee to disclose the lower rate of profit and in that view of the matter, the Tribunal estimated 6% net profit of total on-money receipts of Rs.4,72,02,368/-. 11.

The present Tax Appeal is therefore, summa .....
