O R D E R

This appeal at the instance of the Revenue is directed against CIT(A)’s order dated 27.10.2017. The relevant assessment year is 2012-2013.

2.The assessee is a wholly owned subsidiary of Robert Bosch Investment Nederland B.V. The assessee is engaged in
manufacture of components for the automotive industry. For the relevant assessment.

3.Aggrieved by the final assessment order, the assessee preferred appeal to the first appellate authority. One of the
contentions raised before the first appellate authority was cash profit margin of the assessee and the comparable shoul be taken prior to the deduction of depreciation allowance.

4. The learned AR, on the other hand, submitted that the ground raised is not correct since the CIT(A) has directed the
A.O. to arrive at the cash profit margin of the assessee as well as the comparables prior to the deduction of depreciation
allowance.

5.In the result, the appeal filed by the Revenue is dismissed.
Order pronounced on this 28th day of July, 2021.
