....see and learned D.R. of the Revenue. The learned A.R. of the assessee argued that the assessee was following cash system of accounting in all earlier years and that the addition cannot be made on accrual basis in the year under consideration. It was argued that on similar issue for A.Y. 2004-05 in ITA No. 6719/Mum/2007 by order dated 21.10.2008 the similar issue was restored to the file of AO.

....h method of accounting. The assessee has however produced before us copy of computation of income for assessment year 1990-91 in which the method of accounting has been declared as cash. This material was not available before the authorities in the earlier years. Further, in the computation of income for the impugned assessment year, the assessee has clearly declared the method of accounting as cash in the notes at item No.6. Considering all these factors, we are of the opinion that matter requires fresh consideration particularly in view of the claim that cash method of accounting had been accepted by the department in the computation made for assessment year 1990-91. We therefore set aside the order of the CIT(A) and restore the matter to....

....ore the AO in his reply filed on 24.10.2005. 15. On the other hand, the learned D.R. for Revenue supported the orders of the authorities below. The learned D.R. further argued that the assessee has not disclosed the interest income while filing the return of income. It is not the case that the assessee had actually received interest but did not disclose the same in the return of income. Cash system of accounting was accepted by the AO from A.Y. 2004-05 onwards. 16. We have considered the rival submission of the parties and gone through the orders of the authorities below. We have seen that during the assessment proceedings the assessee has accepted the error in calculating the interest on F.D. and the difference of Rs. 94,530/- was added ....
