No.409/Lkw/2013 dated 29/11/2013. Since Learned D.R. of the Revenue could not point out any difference in facts as compared to the facts in assessment year 2005-06 and 2008-09 wherein the Tribunal decided the similar issue in favour of the assessee, we do not find any reason to take a contrary view. Accordingly, this ground of Revenue is rejected. 5. Ground No. 2 is as under: "2.

No difference in facts could be pointed out by Learned D.R. of the Revenue and therefore, we do not find any reason to take a contrary view in the present year. Hence, by respectfully following the Tribunal decision for assessment year 2005-06, we decline to interfere in the order of learned CIT(A). Ground No. 5 is rejected. 18. Ground No. 6 is as under: "6. That the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals ) is not justified in deleting the addition of Rs. 13,41,800/- made by the Assessing Officer on account of payment of subscription to Federation under section 40(a)(ia) of the Income Tax Act and the CIT (A) has not considered the facts and circumstances as mentioned by the Assessing Officer in the assessment order." 19.

The appellant's AR also filed a copy of the reply dated 05/09/2008 which find place in the paper book at sl no. 66 to 69. In view of the details as filed, action of the Assessing Officer in making the addition is not maintainable and the same is deleted." 23.1 From the above Para from the order of learned CIT(A), we find that no deduction was made in the present year. We also find that the copy of ledger account is available on page No. 62 of the paper book and as per the same, there is opening balance of Rs. 390062.46 and the same amount is the closing balance and therefore, there is no deduction from cane growers in the present year. In view of this fact that there is no deduction in the present year, the disallowance made by the Assessing Officer is not justified and therefore, we hold that the same was rightly deleted by learned CIT(A). This ground is rejected. 24. Ground No. 8 is as under: "8. That the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals ) is not justified in deleting ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X
