ITAT held that the subject property was partly self-occupied and partly let out; assessing the entire annual letting value (ALV) as the assessee's income was erroneous. The Tribunal found the AO's adoption of an artificial rate (yielding a monthly rent based on 1,200 per sq.ft.) unsupported and derived from commercial listings, hence not a reliable or scientific basis for ALV. The matter was remitted to the AO to determine ALV solely for the let-out portion, applying legal principles and precedents for valuation and after affording the assessee adequate opportunity of being heard. The assessee's grounds were partly allowed for statistical purposes.
