A Narela revolving fund was created to manage financial resources, with separate accounts for transactions related to the fund. The undertaking developed plots, generated surplus funds, and earned interest by investing in banks. The Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG) audited the accounts, advising that the funds and interest did not belong to the undertaking. The undertaking reversed the entries and deposited the amounts with the Delhi Administration, claiming no income earned through interest.The Assessing Officer and Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeal) disagreed, asserting that the interest constituted the undertaking's income. However, the Tribunal reversed this decision, emphasizing that the scheme and funds belonged to the Delhi Administration, not the undertaking. The Tribunal noted that the undertaking rectified the error upon objection by the CAG, indicating no income earned through interest. The Tribunal concluded that the funds and interest did not belong to the undertaking, as it was solely a development agency.The High Court upheld the Tribunal's decision, stating that the funds and interest did not pertain to the undertaking, as they were owned by the Delhi Administration. The Court found no fault in the Tribunal's reasoning, as the undertaking had no income and rectified the credits based on the CAG's advice. Consequently, the Court dismissed the appeal, ruling that no substantial question of law arose for consideration in this matter.
