..... CIT(E) claimed that assessee was not eligible for deduction as per Rule 2BBB of the Income-tax Rule, 1962 as during the impugned assessment year, the assessee had received grant amount of Rs. 89,19,294/- as against the gross receipt of Trust amount to Rs. 2,66,32,390/-, which is 33.5% of the total receipt. Assessment order was duly set aside and revisional authority passed order u/s. 263 and treated the assessment order erroneous and prejudicial to the interest of revenue. 3.1 For A.Y. 2015-16, assessee filed two returns. One original u/s. 139(1) and another revised u/s. 139(4) of the Act. The returns were processed and intimations u/s. 143(1) were served. The assessee filed appeal before the ld. CIT(A) by challenging both the intimations passed u/s. 143(1) by the CPC. The ld. CIT(A) without adjudicating the merit of the appeal related to intimation of revised return was duly passed the appeal order. The reason for not adjudicating the merit was that double effect in the filing appeals in same issue. 3.2 For assessment Year 2016-17, the claim u/s. 10(23C)(vi) of the Act was duly rejected by the ld.

The Rule 2BBB was not applicable during the impugned assessment year. No prospective effect is allowed related to this Rule. The ld. AR of the assessee respectfully relied on the order of Tolani Education Society v. Deputy Director of Income-tax (Exemptions) - I(2), Mumba, [2013] 30 taxmann.com 165 (Bombay). The relevant paragraph is extracted as below. 14. In the circumstances, and for these reasons, we have come to the conclusion that the Chief Commissioner of Income-tax was in error in holding that the Petitioner does not exist solely for the educational purposes or that it exists for profit. The issue pertaining to the claim of the Petitioner for the grant of an exemption under Sub- clause (iiiab) of Section 10(23C) for Assessment Year 2008-09 is now pending in Appeal before the CIT(A). It may also be noted here that the Petitioner has been consistently granted the benefit of the provisions of Section 11, which would postulate that the Petitioner does not exist for the purposes of profit. 7.
