The ITAT upheld the Assessing Officer's determination that the actual sale consideration for the immovable property was Rs. 5,04,80,000/-, rejecting the assessee's arrangement with True Value as a sham transaction designed to divert sale proceeds and reduce tax liability. True Value was neither the property owner nor the assessee's authorized agent, and the claimed 50% commission was unjustified. The Tribunal confirmed the reduction of the sale consideration from WDV of the block of assets and the consequent disallowance of excess depreciation of Rs. 25,48,000/-. However, the separate addition of Rs. 2.54 Crores for disallowance of expenditure was deleted as Revenue failed to establish that this amount was separately debited in the assessee's P&L account. The Revenue's appeal was partly allowed.
