....ness of the order dated 30.01.2015, passed by the learned CIT(A)-2, Ahmedabad for the assessment year 2011 -12, on the following ground: "The Ld. CIT(A) has erred in law and on facts in deleting the disallowance amounting to Rs. 3,89,90,537/- made by AO on account of provision for bad and doubtful debts made by assessee." 2. At the time of hearing before us, learned representatives fairly agree that the grievance raised by the Assessing Officer in the appeal is covered, in favour of the assessee, by a decision of the co-ordinate bench in assessee's own case for assessment year 2006-07 (ITA No. 335/Ahd/2011; order dated 27.10.2016) wherein the co-ordinate bench has observed as follows:- "6, We find that so far ....

....the learned Tribunal. The learned Tribunal, while allowing the claim of the assessee of deduction of Rs. 2,18,05,3927- u/s. 36(1)(vii) of the Act, as bad debts, the learned Tribunal has heavily relied on the decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Vijaya Bank v. CIT, reported in (2010) 323 ITR 166. We have also considered the decision of Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Vijaya Bank vs. CIT (supra).

....owing the order above of this tribunal, we find no reason to interfere in the order of the learned CIT-A. Hence the ground of appeal of the Revenue is dismissed. The 2nd issue raised by the Revenue is that learned CIT (A) erred in deleting the addition made by the AO for Rs. 36,08,45,107.00 under section 14A of the Act. 8. The assessee in the year under consideration has shown dividend income of Rs. 19,08,444.00 only which was claimed as exempt income under section 10(34) of the Act. The assessee against such exempted income has made the disallowance of Rs. 3,67,12,065.00 only. However, the AO was not satisfied with the disallowance made by the assessee as the same was not as per the provisions of rule 8D of Income Tax Rules. Therefor....

....The case was selected for scrutiny assessment and notice-u/s. 143(2) of the Act was issued and served upon the assessee. On scrutiny of the accounts, it revealed to the Assessing Officer that assessee has declared dividend income of Rs. 22,697/- which was claimed as exempt from taxes u/s. 10(35) of the Act. The Ld.AO made an analysis of the expenditure required to be disallowed for earning this tax free income. He worked out the disallowance with the help of Rule 8D of the Income Tax Rules, 1962. Such disallowance has been worked out at Rs. 8,05,856/-. It is pertinent to observe that the Hon'ble Gujarat High Court on the issue in the case of CIT vs. Corrtech Energy Pvt.Ltd. reported in (2014) 223 Taxman 0130 and Hon'ble Delhi High C....
