....reduced by around 750% and execution cost has been reduced only by around 1.8%. 3.The CIT(A) erred in directing the AO to recompute the disallowance under rule 8D(2)(iii) of the LT. rules after considering the correct figures as per the balance sheet when the AO has rightly made the disallowance after analyzing the investment portfolio as given by the assessee at para 12 of the assessment order. 4.The CIT(A) erred in holding at para 4.3 that the average value of assets will be taken as Rs. 7,040,841,959/- whereas the assessee himself has shown the net current assets of Rs. 445,99,03,91 01- as on March 31st, 2009 and Rs. 415,92,82,877/- as on March 31st 2008 in the Balance sheet which has been adopted by the AO while calculating the average assets value. 5.The CIT(A) erred in deleting the disallowance of interest u/s 36(1)(iii) amounting to Rs. 23,25,95,267/- even though the assessee had advanced interest free loans to its sister concerns out of the interest bearing borrowed funds. 6.The CIT(A) erred in not appreciating that the cash flow statement for the year ended 31.3.2009 filed by the assessee reveals that the assessee company never had any profits from its operations t....

....s per this tribunal order, what can be held is that the revised return filed is not a return filed u/s 139 (3) and therefore, the claim of assessee for carry forward of loss can be rejected but the revised return has to be accepted as valid if it is filed within the time available u/s 139 (5) and the original return was filed within the time available u/s 139 (1). He submitted that in the present case, the original return was filed on 30.09.2009 i.e. within the time available u/s 139 (1) and the revised return was filed on 28.12.2010 i.e. within the time available u/s 139 (5). He submitted that he is not serious about carry forward of loss because till now, there is no taxable income and the period of 8 years has expired on 31.03.2017 relevant for A. Y. 2017 - 18. 6. We have considered the rival submissions. We first reproduce Para 11 of the tribunal order on which reliance has been placed by learned DR of the revenue. This is as under:- "11. The learned counsel for the assessee relying upon the provisions of sub sec. (5) of sec. 139 of the Income-tax Act has submitted that the assessee has filed the original return under sub sec. (1) of the sec. 139 and subsequently having disc....

....revised return filed u/s 139(5) cannot be accepted and has to be treated as null and void. In view of the same, we uphold the findings of the CIT (A) and assessee's appeal is accordingly dismissed. The decisions relied upon by the learned counsel for the assessee are distinguishable on facts. In the case of Sujani Textile Pvt. Ltd., the Tribunal has given a finding that where the assessee had filed the loss return u/s 139(3) within the time allowed by law and the revised return of income showing higher amount of loss was also filed within the time allowed by law then the revised return replaces the original return. But in the case before us, the assessee has not filed the return u/s 139(3) of the Act within the time allowed by law but has filed the revised return claiming the loss u/s 139(5) of the Act, therefore, it cannot be said that the revised return of income replaced the original return of income and, therefore, the ratio of the decision is not applicable to the facts of the case before us. As far as The Decision of the Tribunal in the assessee's own case for the assessment year 2003-04 is concerned, we find that the assessee has made the claim of deduction under Rule 7A of ....

....oss is rejected in view of the submission of the learned AR of the assessee. Additional grounds stand partly allowed. 8. Regarding the ground no. 2 raised by the revenue in this appeal, learned DR of the revenue supported the assessment order and learned AR of the assessee supported the order of CIT (A). He also submitted that as per this ground, it is stated that the income in the revised return was reduced by 750% as against reduction in expenses by around 1.8% but this is factually not correct. He drawn our attention to page 4 of the paper book being the original P/L Account and pointed out that as per the same, the turnover reported is Rs. 416.67 Crores which has been reduced to Rs, 387.67 Crores as per revised P/L Account available on page 18 of paper book and therefore, the reduction in turnover is only 6.96% and not 750% as stated in the ground. He fairly conceded that the claim in the revised P/L Account in respect of reduction in turnover was not examined by the A.O. and therefore, the matter may be restored to A.O. 9. We have considered the rival submissions. Having accepted that the revised return is valid subject to the rider that carry forward of loss, if any, is not....
