In the backdrop of our aforesaid observations, we are of the considered view that the declining on the part of the Tribunal to address the grievance of the assessee as regards the raising of the demand u/ss. 115-O (tax) and 115-P (interest) by observing that the issue as regards quantification of DDT did not arise from the order passed by the CIT(A), is not found to be in conformity with the settled position of law laid down by the Hon ble Apex court in the afore mentioned judgments.

On the other hand, the CIT(A) had declined the assesse s claim on the basis of a misconceived fact that the assessee was seeking credit of DDT against its tax liability on the total income.

Accordingly, on the basis of our aforesaid observations, the order passed by the Tribunal while disposing off the appeal of the assessee is rectified. We herein restore the matter to the file of the A.O, who is herein directed to verify the claim of the assessee that though it had deposited DDT of ₹ 33,21,750/- u/s 115-O of the Act, vide a challan dated 17.05.2010 (as per Form 26AS ), however, credit has been allowed only to the extent of ₹ 32,44,500/-. Resultantly, the impugned demand towards such short/deficit credit of DDT of ₹ 77,250/- u/s 115-O and interest u/s 115-P of ₹ 4,69,975/- had been raised by the revenue.
