An affidavit has been filed on behalf of the assessee stating the reasons for the delay in filing the instant appeal by one day. We are satisfied with the genuineness of the reasons in the belated presentation of the present appeal. Accordingly, the delay is condoned and appeal is taken up for hearing for disposal on merits. 3. Briefly stated the facts of the case are that the original assessment in this case was completed u/s 143(3). Thereafter the CIT issued notice u/s 263 on following seven issues:- (i) Short term capital loss of Rs 5,525 wrongly set off against business income. (ii) Section 14A disallowance no .....

Next issue on which the learned CIT revised the assessment order is about TDS and income reconciliation not done.
