The ITAT ruled in favor of the assessee regarding multiple contribution-related disputes. The Tribunal upheld the one-time superannuation fund contribution made to bridge actuarial valuation gaps, determining that ceiling rules were inapplicable as it wasn't an initial or annual contribution. Similarly, excess contribution to approved gratuity fund was allowed, following precedent that recognition status must be presumed valid until explicitly withdrawn by Commissioner. Additionally, the Tribunal deleted disallowances under s.36(1)(va) regarding delayed provident fund deposits, noting that absent specific due dates in KPT Regulations 1988, contributions credited within the following month were acceptable. The Revenue's appeals on all grounds were dismissed.
