Considering the fact that the submissions of both the parties are not supported by any evidence, the disallowance being made by A.O on adhoc basis, the passing of a cryptic order of ld. CIT(A), we are of view that in the present case considering the fact that the matter is more than 7 years old and no useful purpose would be served in remanding the matter back.
