....143(3) of the Act dated 31.12.2010 for the Asst Year 2008-09. 2. The first issue to be decided in this appeal is as to whether the Ld. CIT(A) was justified in confirming the disallowance u/s 14A of the Act, in the facts and circumstances of the case. 3.

....which works out to Rs. 51,833/- only. But we find that the ld. AO while making the computation of income had erroneously disallowed Rs. 1,51,751/- instead of 51,833/-. We find that the Ld.

....up of loss as under: We hold that there is absolutely no logic in the ld. AO reducing Rs. 5,94,38,000/-taking figure of accumulated depreciation from the fixed assets schedule and reducing the same while completing the books profit u/s 115JB of the Act. From the above table, it may appear that the assessee has rightly deducted Rs. 6,31,53,460/- representing unabsorbed depreciation loss as per books of accounts. We hold that this figure requires factual verification by the ld AO. Hence in the interest of justice and fairplay, we deem it fit and appropriate, to remand this issue to the file of ld AO for factual verification of the aforesaid figures and determine the amount of unabsorbed depreciation loss as per books of accounts to be redu....
