Consequently, the first question was decided against the assessee.4. The second question involved the exclusion of 'Profit' or the entire amount of DEPB for computation of deduction under Section 28(iiid) and Section 80HHC. The Court relied on a judgment in Kohinoor International vs. Commissioner of Income Tax, Jalandhar, following a Supreme Court judgment in Topman Exports vs. Commissioner of Income Tax, Mumbai. The matter was remanded back to the Assessing Officer to compute the deduction under Section 80HHC in accordance with the law and the Supreme Court's judgment in Topman Exports case.5. Consequently, the second question was answered in the same terms, and the case was remanded back to the Assessing Officer for a fresh order in line with the law and the Supreme Court's judgment.6. The appeal was disposed of accordingly by the Court.
