The ITAT allowed the assessee's appeal, holding that the addition as deemed dividend under s. 2(22)(e) was invalid both on jurisdictional and substantive grounds. The assessment was selected for limited scrutiny, and the AO neither obtained prior approval from the competent authority nor converted it into complete scrutiny before examining deemed dividend, rendering the addition ultra vires the limited scrutiny mandate.
