The ground raised by the Revenue is as below: "(1) The CIT(A) ought to have not concluded that there is change of opinion of the Assessing Officer despite the fact the assessee has not complied the provisions for allowing exemption. Thus, the CIT(A) erred in treating the case as null and void ignoring the explanations to 2nd proviso to section 147." 3.

Being so, considering the facts and circumstances of the present case, we are completely in agreement with the finding of the CIT(A) and he has not committed an error in coming to the conclusion that the assess....
