AO has failed to work out correct book profit u/s 115JB by allowing deduction u/s 80IB in computation of book profit u/s 155JB. 3.5 The facts of the case are that the assessee has a unit claimed as exempt u/s 801B at Samba in Jammu & Kashmir. Further, it has a unit at Jalandhar which is not exempt u/s 801B. As per Section 115 JB of the Act, an assessee is liable to pay tax at the rates of 18-1/2 per cent on the book profit if the income tax payable on the total income is less than 18-1/2 per cent of its Book Profit. The said Section also provides for computing the book profit starting with the profits as per Profit & LOSS account prepared in accordance with the provisions of Part-ll of Schedule VI of Companies Act 1956. the said Section also provides for allowing certain deductions. However, deduction u/s 80 IB is not one of them. Hence the assessee was required to compute the Book Profit u/s 115 JB without claiming deduction in respect of the profits of 80 IB unit. On perusal of the records it is revealed that assessee has arrived at the book profit after claiming deduction u/s 80 1B which is incorrect. The Assessing Officer has passed the order without examining the same. Furt....

Their Lordships observed that it was incumbent upon the Pr.CIT to undertake an enquiry as regards to the issues. The matter can be restored to the AO only after the Pr.CIT undertakes the enquiry himself. 13. From the facts on record and the aforesaid cases relied upon by the counsel of the assessee, it appropriate to observe, in the present case, that the necessary enquiries were being made by the AO. It is pertinent to mention that the view of ld. Assessing Officer being a plausible view, and therefore, the....
