Issues: 1. Disallowance of provision for damaged goods 2. Disallowance of depreciation on intangible assets
Disallowance of Provision for Damaged Goods: The appeal dealt with the disallowance of a provision for damaged goods amounting to Rs. 8,05,08,113. The CIT(A) upheld the appellant's contentions based on precedents in the appellant's own case for earlier assessment years. The Tribunal directed the Assessing Officer to verify the actual expenditure incurred in the subsequent year and make adjustments accordingly. Since the CIT(A) followed the earlier order of the Tribunal, the revenue's appeal on this ground was dismissed.
Disallowance of Depreciation on Intangible Assets: The second issue involved the disallowance of depreciation amounting to Rs. 36,33,728 on intangible assets in the form of non-compete territory rights. The CIT(A) relied on a Tribunal decision for A.Y. 2005-06 in the appellant's own case to dismiss the revenue's appeal. The CIT(A) directed the Assessing Officer to decide the issue in light of the final decision of the Hon'ble High Court for A.Y. 2002-03. Following the Tribunal's decision, the appeal on this ground was also dismissed. As a result, the revenue's appeal was ultimately dismissed by the Tribunal.
