The AO is to verify if the income corresponding to the brought forward TDS was offered to tax in the relevant year and if no credit was claimed for the TDS in that year. If verified, the AO should allow the set-off of the TDS brought forward amounting to Rs. 9,94,700/-. Thus, Ground No. 4 was allowed for statistical purposes.Conclusion:The appeal of the assessee was partly allowed for statistical purposes.
