The ITAT upheld the CIT(A)'s deletion of the addition under section 40(a)(ia) related to TDS under section 194I on payments made to slum dwellers for alternate accommodation during redevelopment. The Tribunal relied on precedent establishing that such payments, characterized as compensation for vacating possession and transit rent, do not constitute 'rent' liable to TDS under section 194I. Conversely, the ITAT affirmed the disallowance of delayed PF/ESI payments, consistent with Supreme Court authority, thereby sustaining the AO's disallowance on that ground. Consequently, the appeal was partially allowed, confirming the deletion of the TDS-related addition while upholding the disallowance on delayed statutory contributions.
