Therefore, the High Court was fully justified in deciding the appeal against the revenue. xxxx xxxx xxxx 78. Before parting with this issue, we may mention that reliance placed by Mr. Rupesh Kumar, learned counsel for the revenue on the definition of the expression "market value" as defined in the explanation below sub-section (6) of Section 80 A of the Act is totally misplaced inasmuch as sub-section (6) was inserted in the statute with effect from 01.04.2009 whereas in the present case we are dealing with the assessment year 2001-2002 when this provision was note even borne." 3.

Consequently, no substantial question of law arises in the instant appeal and we find no justification to interfere with the ITAT's impugned order dated 15 January 2019. 7. The appeal fails and shall stand dismissed on the aforesaid terms." 3. Insofar as the issue of excessive remuneration to a related party is concerned, the ITAT has held as follows: "15. We have heard both the parties and perused all the relevant material available on record.

The Assessing Officer/TPO/DRP has not brought on record any discrepancy on part of the assessee company in relation to the method of allocation adopted by the assessee company. The Tribunal (Third Member decision) in case of DCIT vs. Delhi Press Samachar Patra (P)Ltd. held as under: "39. It is clear from the assessment orders that income shown and expenses claimed by the assessee have been duly allowed in the assessment order. None of the expenditure has been treated as ingenuine or not connected or related to the business carried out by the assessee. In the above background and without any material, and without any justification on the part of the AO, some of the expenses claimed by the assessee were held to be inflated in Unit No. I and were deflated in Unit Nos. II and III. Entire case of AO in both the assessment years is based on surmises and conjectures. The learned CIT(A) had passed a fair, rationale and just order. There was no scope to interfere with the impugned orders as rightly held by the learned AM in his proposed order. On similar facts claim in earlier years was allowed to the as....
