It is seen that the assessee has made two claims. First, it had applied more than 85% of the gross receipts of the preceding years, therefore, it is requested that the set off of excess application be allowed. Secondly, only the shortfall in application of 85% be taxed. From the perusal of the order passed u/s.154 of the Act i.e. the impugned order, we find that there was no claim with respect of the set off of excess claim made during the preceding years nor is borne out from the records.
