..... going through the provisions of section 10A and sub-clause 2(i)(b) and also sub-section (2)(i) (c) of section 10A, we find considerable force in the submissions of the counsel for the assessee. We are of the view that Assessing Officer and Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) have completely overlooked the provisions in rejecting the claim of the assessee that it is not entitled for deduction under section 10A of the Act.

..... 013 is as under- 28. We do not agree with the submissions of the AR that the UPS is an energy saving device, therefore, depreciation @ 80% should be granted. However, we are in consonance with the decision of Hon'ble Delhi High Court in the case of Orient Ceramics Industries Ltd. (supra), wherein the Hon'ble Court has granted depreciation @ 60% by treating UPS as part of computer hardware. Accordingly, we allow depreciation 60% on UPS arid partly allow the ground of appeal of the assessee. 4.2.3 Respectfully following the decision of the jurisdictional ITAT, in the case of Indian Overseas Bank in ITA No.99/Mds/2010 dated 19.03.2~13, I hold that UPS attached to the computers are part of computer systems and eligible f .....

..... s) rejected the alternative claim of the assessee that it is eligible for deduction under section 10A observing that as per the provisions of section 10A only those industrial undertakings which are established in SEZ on or after 01.04.2001 are eligible for deduction. He was of the view that assessee s undertaking was registered in STPI and not under SEZ and therefore the Assessing Officer has rightly rejected the alternative claim of the assessee for deduction under section 10A of the Act. 11. Counsel for the assessee referring to the provisions of sub-section (2) (i)(b) of section 10A submits that an undertaking which begins to manufacture or produce articles or things or computer software during the previous year relevant to the asses .....
