On 26th Oct 2018 AHMEDABAD TRIBUNAL held that Action u/s 263 can be justified only when twin condition is fulfilled as held by The Karnataka High Court in the case of CIT Vs. Shri D.G. Gopala Gowda i.e. assessment order should be erroneous and it should cause a prejudice to the Revenue. In the instant case Assessee argued the moment addition on account of disallowance of the deprecation would be made to the assessee’s income, it will be allowed as deduction u/s80IA/80IC. Therefore, order of the Commissioner is not sustainable on this issue.
