Deduction u/s.80IA(4)(i) - assessee business is in the nature of work contract - The Tribunal engaged in a thorough analysis to determine whether the assessee acted as a contractor or a developer. It highlighted the legal and functional distinctions between the two, noting that developers are involved in the comprehensive design, financing, and execution of projects and bear substantial risks beyond mere completion of work. Despite the Tribunal's inclination to recognize the assessee as a developer, it noted deficiencies in the appellate record regarding detailed analyses of each project undertaken by the assessee. As such, the Tribunal remanded the case to the Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals) for a comprehensive reevaluation of each project to conclusively determine the nature of the assessee's activities with respect to the criteria for a developer under Section 80IA(4).
