Statutory exemption under section 10(26AAB) for an Agricultural Produce Marketing Committee could not be denied merely because the PAN reflected an incorrect status as a trust. The ITAT held that the assessee's true character as an Agricultural Produce Marketing Committee was undisputed, and a mismatched PAN entry was not determinative of the legal position or a basis to tax otherwise exempt income.
