As submitted by the learned counsel for the assessee, only the quantum of addition made on account short term capital gain was disputed by the assessee in the appeal filed before the Ld. CIT(A) as well as the Tribunal and the tax rate of 10% charged by the A.O. on such short term capital gain by applying section 111A was never in dispute at any stage either before the Ld.
