..... has submitted that the balance share which belonged to his brother and in his assessments, the cost of acquisition of the same godown has been accepted by the Revenue. Before us, no material has been brought on record to show that the valuation of the godown in the case of Assessee s brother has been challenged in appeal before Tribunal.

..... taken on 04.04.2001, whereas the godown was purchased on 16.11.1996. Therefore, re-valuation needs to be done. Further, as per loan papers, the loans were granted by the State Bank of India on 11.08.1997 whereas the assessee has claimed indexation from 16.11.1996 which is not appreciable.

The valuation report also estimates that the investment on the construction of godown is about Rs. 54 lakhs. Thus, the cost of acquisition of Rs.27 lakhs (appellant's share) seems to be in order.

The addition of Rs.37,43,606/- as long term capital gain is thus directed to be deleted. 4. Aggrieved by the order of Ld. CIT(A), Revenue is now in appeal before us. 5. Before us Ld. DR relied on the order .....
