As per AO, in the case of Oswal Spinning Mills, the Hon'ble Punjab & Haryana High Court held that interest paid on acquisition of machinery, can be treated as part of the cost of machinery. Ld. CIT(A) deleted the impugned addition made by the AO. The ld. CIT(A), on the basis of submission filed before him, held that the appellant had not raised any loan from any bank or any financial institution against installation of machinery during the year under consideration. This contention was also raised before the AO. The AO failed to give specific finding on this aspect and, hence, ld. CI T(A) held that it cannot be presumed that any interest bearing funds, have been invested, in the capital work, in process, shown by the assessee. Ld. CIT(A), found the cases relied upon by the AO as distinguishable, factually and materially. We do not find any infirmity in the findings of the ld. CIT(A) and, hence, findings of the ld. CIT(A) are upheld and ground of appeal raised by the revenue is dismissed. 10. In Ground No.4, revenue contended that the CIT(A) erred in law and on facts in deleting t....
