..... rate of ₹ 380.53 per share of Clearview Healthcare Pvt. Ltd (₹ 615 per share of Clearmedi Healthcare Private Limited) for which in continuation to same we are relying on , share purchase agreement dated 20/03/2014 and copy of income tax return of seller of shares of Clearview Health care Pvt Ltd (Shahsi Baliyan)) etc which is on records for adjudication as necessary plea was duly raised to AO. It was further submitted that Ld CIT(A) erred in confirming/sustaining the addition made of ₹ 9,19,632 u/s 56(2)(viib) of the Act in para 8.1 to 8.4 of his order by not appreciating that Once share sale/purchase done subsequently is considered at which shares of company are actually transacted then it would not be difficult to accept that share premium received in subject period is fully and completely justified and cannot be interdicted as done by AO. It was further submitted that Ld CIT(A) erred in not appreciating that when addition of ₹ 919,632 /- u/s 56(2)(viib) of the Act was palpably incorrect because after rejecting assessee s valuation no valid substitute for correct valuation has been brought on records as rejecting assessee s valuation does not mean that to .....

This plea of assessee has considerable cogency. The second plea is that when ultimately shares are bought by foreign buyer on basis of detailed due diligence which is reflected from share purchase resolution and share purchase agreement already placed on records and money paid for share purchase by foreign buyer is beyond shadow of doubt it cannot be said that subsequent money which is paid by foreign buyer to share holders sellers in India who have subscribed share at premium in subject period is not a clean money which defense of assessee also has considerable cogency. Further, plea of assessee that once assessee has given approved valuer (CA) report justifying share premium raised which is based on valid and prescribed method being DCF and said report is in accordance with ICAI norms and no where AO has countered said report by substitute valuation from alternate expert on basis of chosen DCF method and assessee s valuation is justified by subsequent sale/purchase and there is no unaccount .....

This amendment will take effect from 1st April, 2013 and will, accordingly, apply in relation to the assessment year 2013- 14 and subsequent assessment years 5.1 I further find that the issue in dispute is squarely covered by the decision of the ITAT A Chennai Bench decided in ITA Nos.663, 664 665/Chny/2019 in case of M/s Lalithaa Jewellery Mart Pvt. Ltd decided on 14.06.2019 wherein, it was held that: 15. Now coming to valuation of shares, as rightly submitted by the Ld. counsel for the assessee, there are two limbs in Section56(2)(viib) of the Act.
