The ITAT allowed the appeal, holding that the assessee, a registered public charitable trust engaged in education, validly applied income in India under s.11(1)(a) by making payments to a foreign educational institute for textbooks, examination, licence and exemption fees and related foreign-exchange losses, since the tangible and intangible benefits accrue within India and the services facilitate awarding qualifications to Indian students. The AO's disallowance was set aside and directed deleted. The Tribunal distinguished precedents involving activities conducted abroad and relied on an earlier coordinate-bench finding under s.12AA that the assessee's activities qualify as "education", which remains binding, permitting the claimed application and associated carry-forward treatment.
