....ing deduction of 30% u/s 24 of the Act which claim of the assessee was not accepted by the Assessing Officer, who treated such income as business income and disallowed deduction u/s 24 @ 30% to make addition of this amount and CIT(A) confirmed such action of the Assessing Officer, but treated such income as 'income from other sources' instead of 'house property income' as claimed by the assessee. 6.
