In the applications filed, the Revenue has pointed out how the impugned issue was covered in its favour as under: "a) In the assessee's own case for the A.Y. 2009-10, the Ld. CIT(A) dismissed the appeal of the assessee on this point.

It was pointed out that it had been noted in the order that in the preceding years the issue of claim of deduction u/s 80P(2)(e) of the Act, had been restored back to the A.O. following the order of the Hon'ble High Court on this issue in the case of the assessee, holding that only rent received from letting out the w .....

In the impugned year, since it was found that the verification had already been done by the CIT(A) himself which was in accordance with the findings of the Hon'ble High Court, the appeal of the Revenue was dismissed on this count. The plea of the Revenue, therefore, that the issue needed to be restored back to the A.O. in the light of the decision of the I.T.A.T. in the earlier years, therefore, is based on incorrect appreciation of facts. 7.
