Issues Involved:
Transfer Pricing Issues, Change in method of revenue recognition, Denial of TDS Credit, Non-grant of depreciation on Foreign Exchange Loss, Levy of interest u/s.234B.

Transfer Pricing Issues:
The appeal challenged the adjustment made by the authorities regarding an international transaction in the certification segment under Section 92CA of the Income-tax Act, 1961. The grounds of appeal included errors in determining the adjustment, rejecting TP documentation, comparability analysis, consideration of financial data, treatment of foreign exchange fluctuation, application of filters, threshold limits, and adjustments made by the Appellant. The Tribunal remitted the issue back to the AO/TPO for fresh consideration based on previous rulings and directions.

Change in Method of Revenue Recognition:
The issue revolved around the change in the method of revenue recognition from proportionate completion method to completed contract method. The AO and DRP concluded that the change was not bona fide, leading to proposed adjustments. The Tribunal upheld the revenue authorities' decision, emphasizing that the change was not bona fide as it postponed revenue recognition without postponing related costs. The Tribunal dismissed the grounds raised by the assessee, maintaining a consistent view with previous rulings.

Denial of TDS Credit:
The AO was criticized for not granting TDS credit as per reconciliation submitted by the Appellant or Form 26AS, and for denying credit on advances received. The Tribunal directed the AO to provide credit as per the reconciliation statement submitted by the assessee after verification, remitting the issue for fresh consideration.

Non-grant of Depreciation on Foreign Exchange Loss:
The AO and DRP were faulted for not granting consequential depreciation on foreign exchange loss disallowed as capital expenses for the Assessment Year 2009-10. The issue was remitted to the AO for further verification and decision in accordance with the law.

Levy of Interest u/s.234B:
This issue was deemed consequential in nature and was not discussed in detail. The Tribunal partly allowed the appeal for statistical purposes, providing relief on certain grounds while remitting others for fresh consideration by the authorities.
