The Assessing Officer disallowed the amount u/s 40(a)(ia). The CIT (Appeals) upheld this disallowance. The Tribunal found that the payment was a reimbursement of expenses to M/s Reliance Logistics Pvt. Ltd., who was not a transporter, and thus outside the purview of TDS. The Tribunal directed the Assessing Officer to delete the addition, supporting the decision with the case of CIT Vs. Bhagwati Steels.Issue 2: Addition of Rs.21,552/- u/s 40A(3) for Building Repair expensesThe assessee did not press this ground, and it was dismissed as not pressed.Issue 3: Adhoc disallowance of Rs.25,000/- out of Building Repair expensesThe Assessing Officer disallowed Rs.25,000/- due to cash payments against self-prepared vouchers. The Tribunal found no merit in the double disallowance, as Rs.21,552/- was already disallowed u/s 40A(3). The Tribunal allowed the ground and directed the deletion of the additional Rs.25,000/- disallowance.Issue 4: Addition of Rs.3,00,000/- out of legal expensesThe assessee claimed Rs.3,00,000/- as training charges paid to M/s Reliance Industries Ltd.

The Tribunal directed the Assessing Officer to allow the expenditure.Issue 5: Adhoc 15% disallowance of Rs.51,974/- out of various expensesThe Tribunal found no merit in the disallowance, as the assessee had paid fringe benefit tax on these expenses.
