It is pertinent to note that the exemption of 15% allowed u/s 11(1)(a) of the Act is not a standard deduction allowed. It only allows accumulation of income without any conditions, if there is any shortfall in application of income, i.e., if the application of income falls short of 85% of the income. In the instant case, we have seen that there is no shortfall in application of inc .....

..... n of 15% of income. He submitted that even though the Ld CIT(A) has rejected the claim on different reasoning, yet his final decision complies with the provisions of sec.11(1)(a) of the Act. 6. We have heard rival contentions and perused the record. The assessee has placed computation of income at page 57 of the paper book. A perusal of the same would show that the assessee has earned capital gains of Rs.22.75 crores and the same has been claimed as exempt u/s 11(1A) of the Act. From the order passed by Ld CIT(A), we notice that the said claim has been accepted by the AO. 7.

The next issue relates to the claim for credit of TDS amount. The Ld A.R submitted that certain income received by the assessee is split between two or more years under accounting principles.

The Ld A.R submitted such kind of split up is permitted under Rule 37BA of Income tax Rules. However, the AO has assessed income so offered by the assessee without allowing corresponding tax credit. The Ld CIT(A) also .....
