....e Supreme Court in the case of Liberty India -vs.- CIT reported in 317 ITR 218. Before we proceed further we may observe that the Assessing Officer had withdrawn the entire amount of Rs. 2,43,26,503/- after observing that the assessee claimed deduction under section 80IB for three Branches which were created at later dates since the original business started and funds and assets were distributed and accounted for by the Head office which prepared the consolidated accounts and acted as the sole assessee and none of units was an assessee, and as such the deduction under section 80IB was not allowable. However, the ld. CIT(Appeals) has decided the issue regarding eligibility for deduction under section 80IB in respect of assessee's three units in favour of assessee and, therefore, as far as eligibility of assesee for deduction under section 80IB is concerned, the said issue is not before us. The only issue before us is regarding the disallowances made while computing the deduction under section 80IB of the Act. 3. Ld. counsel for the assessee, at the outset, referred to para 9 of ld. CIT(Appeals)' order and pointed out that the ld. CIT(Appeals) has excluded from the profits eligibl....

....missed. Ground No. 1,2,3,11 & 12 is general in nature". 17. We have heard the rival submissions and perused the material available on record. Admittedly in the books of account the assessee's block of assets was Rs. 1,33,701/- which was liquidated by way of sale at a total consideration of Rs. 1,21,00,000/-. Therefore, there was no justification in allocating the sale consideration against various items, i.e. furniture & fixtures, electric installation, air conditioners, office equipments, etc. The ld. CIT(Appeals) has observed that in the sale deed, there is no such bifurcation, though such bifurcation was made at the time of amalgamation. Under such circumstances, we do not find any infirmity in the order of ld. CIT(Appeals). Accordingly this ground is dismissed. 18. Now we take up the ITA 2409/KOL/2013. This appeal has been filed by the Revenue against the order of ld. Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals), Central-I, Kolkata dated 02.11.2012 for the assessment year 2009-10. 19. There is delay only for two days. Ld. D.R. submitted that delay may kindly be condoned and has occurred due to administrative reason. Ld. counsel for the assessee did not seriously oppose it. We ....
