In the case of Madras Industrial as relied upon by the learned Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals), the issue was decided in favour of the Revenue on account of the fact that the assessee itself had claimed proportionate amount in the profit and loss account and the hon'ble court had held that in such a scenario proportionate claim was admissible.
