The ITAT referred to a previous year's decision where relief was granted on similar grounds. The ITAT allowed relief to the assessee in part, following the precedent.Issue 2 - Disallowance of late payment of employees' contribution to PF and ESI:The assessee's appeal against the disallowance of Rs. 80,870 for late payment of employees' contribution to PF and ESI was dismissed. The AR acknowledged that the issue was unfavorable based on a High Court ruling. The ITAT upheld the decision of the authorities, citing the relevant legal provisions and the High Court judgment.Issue 3 - Addition while computing book profit under section 115JB of the IT Act:Regarding the addition of Rs. 67,86,490 while computing income under section 115JB, the ITAT partially allowed relief to the assessee based on a previous decision in the assessee's favor. The ITAT noted similarities with a previous case and granted relief accordingly.In conclusion, the ITAT allowed the appeal in part, providing relief to the assessee on the issues of disallowance under section 14A read with Rule 8D and addition while computing book profit under section 115JB. However, the disallowance of late payment of employees' contribution to PF and ESI was upheld.
