¶15

The appeal was admitted on 16.7.2019 on the following substantial questions of law:

¶16

“i. Whether the Tribunal is correct in law in deleting the enhancement of addition by the CIT(A) on account of the assessee diverting interest bearing funds to its sister concern without charging interest by holding that only if interest bearing funds are deployed outside the business of the assessee without recovering interest, such additions can be made without giving any finding as to the business purpose of the assessee in diverting such interest bearing funds ?

¶17

ii. Whether, on the facts and circumstances of the case and in law, the Tribunal was legally justified in not appreciating the principle laid down in the case of CIT Vs. Abhishek Industries Ltd. [reported in 286 ITR 1 (P&H)] while deleting the interest disallowance ? iii. Whether the Tribunal was correct in law in deleting the addition of Rs.7,60,22,100/- made under Section 69C of the Act without following its earlier decision in the assessee's own case for the earlier assessment year 2011-12 wherein the case was remitted back to the Assessing Officer for re-adjudication ? And

¶18

iv. Whether the Tribunal was legally right in not appreciating the ratio of the Hon'ble Supreme Court's decision in the case of Radhasoami Satsung Vs. CIT [reported in 193 ITR 321] to the effect that where a fundamental aspect permeating through the different assessment years has been found as a fact one way or the other and parties have allowed that position to be sustained by not challenging the order, it would not be at all appropriate to allow the position to be changed in a subsequent year?”

¶19

We have heard Mr.T.R.Senthilkumar, learned Senior Standing Counsel assisted by Ms.K.G.Usharani, learned Junior Standing Counsel appearing for the appellant/Revenue and Mr.M.P.Senthilkumar, learned counsel appearing for the respondent/assessee.
