The Tribunal accepted the case of the petitioner by holding that the issue dealt by the Assessing Officer in the proceedings under Section 154 of the IT Act was debatable and in its opinion deduction under Section 80 HHC and 10B cannot be dealt with the proceedings under Section 154 of the IT Act for determining the book-profit under Section 115 J of the IT Act. While holding so, the appeal filed by the petitioner came to be allowed. 5. During the pendency of the said appeal before the Income Tax Tribunal, a Scrutiny Assessment Order dated 22.12.2006 came to be passed by the Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax under Section 143(3) of the Income Tax Act, 1961, wherein, while computing th .....

It is submitted that during the interregnum, the assessment order passed under Section 143(3) of the IT Act has also disallowed the deduction under Section 80HHC of the IT Act. Therefore, the purported reasons for reopening of the assessment cannot be countenanced.
