..... T (A) erred in law and on facts in not deleting but setting aside to AO the addition made of Rs. 98,558/- duty draw back incentive though the same amount has been offered on cash receipt basis in the subsequent year. 7. Levy of interest u/s 234B, 234C 234D of the Act is unjustified 8. Initiation of penalty proceedings u/s 271(1)(c) of the Act is unjustified. 4.1. Heard rival submissions and perused the materials available on record including Paper Book and Case Laws compilation filed by the assessee. 5. Regarding Ground Nos. 1 to 4 disallowance of Rs. 44,89,985/- out of total job work charges of Rs. 92,67,600/- paid to sister concern. The Ld. CIT(A) confirmed the above addition on the ground that the above increase was almost 300% of the rate charged during the earlier period, which is to reduce the tax liability by inflating expenses by the assessee. Both the Lower Authorities have not made any verification about the comparable job work rates of similar nature in the trade for the past or in the future period.

Respectfully following the above judicial precedents and the Lower Authorities failed to make comparative study of the job work charges with any third party, therefore A.O. is not correct in making disallowance u/s. 40A(2)(b) of the Act. Thus the disallowance of Rs. 44,89,995/- made by the Lower Authorities are hereby deleted. Thus Ground Nos. 1 to 4 raised by the assessee are hereby allowed. 7. Regarding Ground No. 5 disallowance of Rs. 33,420 at Rs. 2 per Kg for 16710 Kgs. on estimated basis on the job work carried out by M/s. Mictrotech. The Ld. Counsel submitted that M/s.
