Software license expenses incurred by the assessee were held to be revenue expenditure based on the coordinate bench's decision in DCIT v/s M/s First Advantage Private Limited for the preceding year. Regarding disallowance u/s 40(a)(ia), the assessee admitted deducting TDS at a lower rate on Rs. 98,363 and offered 30% of this amount for disallowance. The CIT(A) rightly deleted the disallowance made by the AO, as the assessee had already disallowed 30% of the relevant payments. The ITAT affirmed the CIT(A)'s order on this issue.
