Hence it is seen that this is the ultimate decision of Tribunal as per the impugned Tribunal order that no inference is called for in the order of CIT (A) and hence, these observations of the Tribunal that the assessee has no business i .....

In view of the above submissions, the Petitioner / Appellant humbly submits that the non appreciation of the facts and the contentions raised would constitute an error on record. 10.

He pointed out that as per the P&L account, there is an income of the assessee of Rs. 27.50 Lakhs under the head Director Remuneration. He submitted that although this is stated to be "Director Remuneration" but actually this is professional income and therefore, this observation of the Tribunal that there is no business income is incorrect.

Hence in my considered opinion, this observation of Tribunal in para 12 that there is no business income in the present year is not incorrect. 3. Regarding the second alleged mistake that the interest paid to Sundaram Finance is not in respect of Housing Loan, I find that the assessee has himself stated in P&L account available on page no. 41 of the paper book that Interest-Sundaram Finance Housing Loan-Rs. 14,29,951/- and therefore, this observation of the Tribunal is also not incorrect when this interest of Rs. 14,29,951/- is in respect of Housing Loan even as per the nomenclature given to it by t .....
