Addition for revaluation of closing stock was contested on the ground that the assessee had previously provided for diminution in value of old/damaged stock and revalued closing stock for the year with a quantified reduction of Rs. 26,88,599, not the higher figure estimated by the AO; the Tribunal accepted the lower figure.
