Answer is different because as per VG sir's book anonymous donation which is not taxable under normal tax rate is not eligible for 15% deduction ...which means whole anonymous donation is deducted before calculating 85% taxable income
whereas in BB sir's book anonymous donation which is taxable under normal tax rate is made eligible for 15% deduction which means before calculating 85% taxable income only that part of anonymous donation which is taxable under section 115 BBC is deducted
and my answer is as per method of BB sir ...if you solve this as per VG sir's method you'll get 543400.
In ICAI module it's written "it's possible to take any of these two views to solve problem"
