During appellate proceedings, the AR has submitted that the facts of the case were not properly appreciated by the AO and the ratio of judgments referred by the AO is not at all applicable considering the true and real facts of the appellant. The AR further submitted that the job receipts in question were there on account of installation and commissioning of control rooms, control panels, control desks etc at the sites of ultimate users mentioned by the customers of appellant in their purchase orders.

In. view of the above discussion, I found that the. facts of the case under consideration are different with the facts of the case referred by the AO. I found force in submission of the AR that there is direct nexus between the income and the industrial undertaking 4onsidering the whole facts and evidences placed on records. The discussions made herein above establishes and proves that the activity of job of installation and commissioning is inextricability linked with the manufacturing of control room, control rooms, control panels, control desks etc manufactured, supplied, installed and commissioned by the appellant company. Further the case referred by the AR is applicable in the case of the appellant company considering the nature of production; installation and commissioning etc. are inextricably linked with the manufacturing of control rooms, control panels, control desks etc and is also integral part of production of undertaking and cannot be separated for determining the profit derived on the production activities of the .....
