Parties Involved

Facts Summary

The case involves two appeals filed by the Revenue against separate appellate orders passed by the Commissioner of Income-Tax (Appeals)-11, Ahmedabad, relating to the assessment orders passed under section 143(3) of the Income Tax Act 1961 for the Assessment Years 2018-19 and 2020-21.

The Assessing Officer denied the deduction, leading to the assessee's appeal to the Commissioner of Income-Tax (Appeals), who allowed the deduction. The Revenue then appealed to the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, which dismissed the Revenue's appeal.…
