Issues Involved:
1. Disallowance of rural development expenditure.
2. Disallowance of provisions for contractual liability.
3. Disallowance of bad debts.
4. Addition of unrecorded sales.
5. Inclusion of miscellaneous income in total turnover for Section 80HHC.
6. Exclusion of certain incomes from business profits for Section 80HHC.
7. Non-determination of capital loss.
8. Netting off interest received from and paid to the Income Tax Department.

Issue-wise Detailed Analysis:

1. Disallowance of Rural Development Expenditure:
The assessee's claim for rural development expenditure was disallowed by the AO on the grounds of no business nexus. The CIT(A) upheld this disallowance citing previous Tribunal decisions against the assessee. The Tribunal, following its consistent view, rejected the assessee's ground.

2. Disallowance of Provisions for Contractual Liability:
The claim for contractual liability towards third-party converters was disallowed as a contingent liability. The CIT(A) upheld this disallowance based on previous appellate orders. The Tribunal, following its earlier decisions, confirmed the disallowance.

3. Disallowance of Bad Debts:
The AO disallowed the bad debts claim due to lack of evidence. The CIT(A) upheld this disallowance. However, the Tribunal, referencing the Supreme Court's decision in T.R.F. Ltd. v. CIT, remanded the matter back to the AO to verify if the bad debts were written off in the accounts.

4. Addition of Unrecorded Sales:
The AO added unrecorded sales based on discrepancies found during a survey of the assessee's sister concern. The CIT(A) confirmed this addition. The Tribunal, following its decision for the previous assessment year, deleted the addition due to lack of evidence of sales out of the books.

5. Inclusion of Miscellaneous Income in Total Turnover for Section 80HHC:
The AO included miscellaneous income in total turnover for Section 80HHC deduction. The CIT(A) upheld this inclusion. The Tribunal, referencing its earlier decision, confirmed that miscellaneous income should be included in the total turnover but also reduced 90% of the same from business profits as per the Supreme Court's decision in CIT v. K. Ravindranathan Nair.

6. Exclusion of Certain Incomes from Business Profits for Section 80HHC:
The AO excluded 90% of insurance claim, interest, other income, and octroi refund from business profits. The CIT(A) upheld this exclusion. The Tribunal, following its earlier decision, confirmed the exclusion of interest and other income but remanded the issue of insurance claim back to the AO for verification in light of the jurisdictional High Court's decision in CIT v. Pfizer Ltd.

7. Non-determination of Capital Loss:
The assessee did not press this ground, and the Tribunal rejected it due to lack of supporting material.

8. Netting off Interest Received from and Paid to the Income Tax Department:
The AO added net interest received from the department. The CIT(A) upheld this addition. The Tribunal, referencing its earlier decision, remanded the matter back to the CIT(A) to decide afresh with proper section-wise details of interest.

Conclusion:
The Tribunal partly allowed the appeals for statistical purposes, remanding certain issues back to the AO and CIT(A) for fresh consideration and verification in light of relevant judicial precedents. The assessee's grounds were rejected or upheld based on consistent Tribunal views and Supreme Court decisions. The order was pronounced in the open court on 11.5.2011.
