Since the issues in these two appeals are common and identical, hence are clubbed, heard and consolidated order is passed. For the sake of convenience, we shall take up the ITA No. 2912/Mum/2005 for the A.Y. 1999-2000 as a lead case and the facts narrated. The revenue has raised the following grounds of appeal: 1.

The Assessing Officer is therefore not justified in making the said addition. Accordingly, the issue was decided in favour of the Respondent. 6. On the Second disputed issue with respect to non grant of benefit of provisions of Sec. 80HHC in respect of advance import license by holding the same was covered under clause (iiib) of Sec. 28 of the Act. The Ld. AR relied on the decision in the assessee own case for the A.Y 1996-97, [2007] 108 TTJ 889 (Mum). We consider it appropriate to refer to the observations of the CIT(A) at page 16 Para 13.1 as under: .......The value of Advance Import License amounting to INR 1,23,80,893 is an export incentive within the meaning of clause 28(iiib) of section 28 of the Act.

DR submitted that the CIT(A) erred in allowing adhoc deduction being 20% of the expenditure incurred on advertisement. Whereas the Ld. AR submitted that the CIT(A) considered the all facts and granted the partial relief. We find that the CIT(A) has observed as under: 8. In Ground No. 3 the appellant has disputed adhoc disallowance of Rs. 1,01,13,318/- being 20% of the expenditure of Rs. 5,05,66,589/- incurred on advertisement as capital expenditure. 9. From the records find that this ground has since, assessment year 2000-01, been allowed in favour of the appellant by relying on the decision in the case of DCIT v. Metro Shoes 268 ITR 106 and the decision of Honorable ITAT Mumbai Bench .....

We have decided this ground of appeal in above paragraph 6 (except variance in figures) and the decision rendered in above paragraphs would apply mutatis mutandis for this case also. 13. The Ld. DR could not controvert the observations of the CIT(A) with any cogent material or information to take a different view and accordingly we do not find any infirmity in the order of the CIT(A) and uphold the same and dismiss the grounds of appeal of the revenue. CO. 184/Mum/2007, A.Y 2003-04 14. Since the revenue's appeal is dismissed and the cross objection becomes infructuous and is also dismissed. ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X
