..... efore, we are of the view that the third issue which arises for only one assessment year, namely, 2010-11 requires to be remanded to the Assessing Officer for a fresh decision. In the result, we find that question no. (a) as raised above does not arise for consideration in this appeal as we find that the entire matter is factual.
