PER B.R. BASKARAN, ACCOUNTANT MEMBER:

The revenue has filed this appeal challenging the order dated 30-03-2018 passed by Ld CIT(A)-2, Bengaluru and it relates to the assessment year 2007-08. The only issue urged by the revenue is whether the Ld CIT(A) was justified in deleting the addition of Rs.5,53,30,473/- made by the AO u/s 40(a)(i) of the Income-tax Act,1961 ['the Act' for short].

2. The facts relating to the issue are discussed in brief. The original assessment for the year under consideration was completed by the AO on 26-08-2011 u/s 143(3) r.w.s. 144C of the Act. The above said assessment order was revised by Ld CIT (LTU) u/s 263 of the Act and hence the AO passed re-assessment order u/s 143(3) r.w.s 263 of the Act. The issue under dispute relates to the addition of Rs.5,53,30,473/- made by the AO.

3. The Ld CIT (LTU) noticed that the assessee had disallowed a sum of Rs.24,77,29,455/- in the earlier year u/s 40(a)(i)/(ia) of the Act, but claimed the above said amount fully as deduction during the year under consideration. The Ld CIT took the view that the assessee is required to substantiate the said claim with evidences. He noticed that the AO has not properly examined the above said claim made by the assessee in the original assessment proceedings. Accordingly, the Ld CIT (LTU) revised the assessment order and restored the matter to the file of AO for examining it afresh. In the set aside proceedings, the AO observed that the assessee has furnished evidences to the tune of Rs.19,23,98,982/- only. Accordingly, he disallowed the balance amount of Rs.5,53,30,473/- and added the same to the total income of the assessee.
