DR. for the revenue simply placed reliance on the reasoning given in the orders of the tax authorities below. 7. We have considered the rival submissions, perused the records and carefully gone through the orders of the tax authorities below. 8. In the instant case, the only arguments advanced by the Ld.

..... urther mention here that from the provisions of section 153(3)(ii) of the Act, as discussed above, it appears that the bar of limitation automatically stands lifted if there is an order of the Court but contrary to the same, Ld. AR for the assessee has not given any provision of law under which beyond a period of 10 years he was not liable to show any tax payable by him nor he was able to show that it was not within the purview of the Income-tax Act to consider the credit for the tax deducted at source by the Assessing Officer beyond a period of ten years. 8.7 Lastly, we would like to refer to the decision of the Apex Court in the case of K.S.
