Under the Act the Board has a fund. There are various sources of income constituting the fund. One of the sources of income is earning profits by compilation, publication, printing and sale of text books. The profits so earned enter into the Board fund. The income and expenditure of the Board is controlled and the entire expenditure is to be directed towards development and expansion of educational purposes. Even if there is some surplus it is not appropriated by others but remains as a part of the sinking fund to be devoted to the cause of education as and when necessary. This being the objective and there being various ways of control of the income and expenditure, the Board of Secondary Education cannot be said to be existing for purposes of profits. It exists solely for purposes of education. The income of the Board cannot, therefore, be computed in the total income of the previous year under section 10(22) of the Income-tax Act, 1961.
