....ion that was available to the appellant either u/s. 10[23c][iiiad] or for that matter u/s. 1 1 of the Act, under the facts and in the circumstances of the appellant's case. 3. The learned CIT[A] ought to have appreciated that the appellant had filed a valid return of income indicating that it was claiming exemption u/s. 10[23C][iiiad] of the Act and thus, the intimation u/s. 143[1] of the Act ought to have been rectified considering the application of the appellant u/s. 154 of the Act by the learned AO. 4. Without prejudice to the above, the learned CIT[A] ought to have noted that the learned A.O. had refused to rectify the intimation by holding that the 12 educational institutions run by the appellant have to be considered as a single unit for purposes of grant of exemption u/s. 10[23C][iiiad] of the Act, which view taken in the rectification proceedings is contrary to the binding judgement of the Hon'ble High Court of Karnataka in the case of Childrens Educational Society reported in 358 ITR 373 [Kar] and consequently, the order refusing rectification was opposed to law and facts of the appellant's case and thus, the learned A.O. ought to have been d....

....iced that the assessee trust has filed Form 10B electronically after receipt of rectification order dated 10.01.2019. It shows that the assessee already filed a rectification application and that was disposed of by the CPC and later, they filed present rectification application before the AO. The AO noted that total receipts of all 12 institutions is Rs.2,50,44,219/- as per the consolidated statements as furnished by the assessee as there was gross violation of the provisions of Sec.10(23C)(iiiad) of the Act, the AO passed the rectification order u/s 154 of the Act on 05.02.2019 by denying the claim of the assessee on the ground that Form 10BB has not been filed. The NFAC has confirmed the order of the ld. AO. Against this assessee is in appeal before me. 3. The ld. A.R. submitted that that while filing their return of Income on 30/03/2017, they had claimed exemption under Section 10(23C) of the Act without further mentioning the sub-sections under which the exemption was claimed. While filing the return the column pertaining to the Name of the Institutions run, grant received, aggregate turnover etc. had been left blank due to an inadvertence. Be that as it may, the legitimate ....

....ssment records. Now the assessee counsel's plea is that the assessee's case is to be examined in the light of judgement of jurisdictional High Court in the case of CIT Vs. Children's Education Society reported in 358 ITR 373 (Karn.) wherein held as follows: "Held....(ii) That the Tribunal was correct in holding that the exemption in terms of the provisions of section 10(23C)(iiiad) was available to the assessee as annual receipts of each of the institutions of the assessee was less than the prescribed limit under the provision." 5.2 In my opinion, the mistake pointed out by the assessee in its petition filed u/s 154 of the Act on 5.2.2019 cannot be said to be debatable issue as this was covered by the judgement of jurisdictional High Court and the ratio laid down by that judgement to be applied to the facts of the case and ld. AO is directed to give effect to the petition filed by the assessee u/s 154 of the Act on 5.2.2019. Ordered accordingly. 6. In the result, appeal of the assessee is allowed.
