ITAT upheld the CIT(A)'s deletions and allowed the appeal in favour of the assessee. The Tribunal held that disallowance of director's salary was unjustified: the director was a foreign national duly qualified, had rendered services, and had declared remuneration in her return, so the AO's addition was dismissed.
