Commission income was shown net of the commission given to the sub- agents which was also accepted by the revenue. Revenue did not accept the manner of showing the gross commission income after adjusting the discount given to the customers which seems to be contrary to the stand of the revenue. It is since that the revenue accepted the commission given to the sub- agents which was not shown in the books of accounts but did not believe on the discount given to the customers despite the fact, the necessary sample invoices were furnished by the assessee having passed on discount to the customers.

The Revenue has raised the following grounds of appeal: 1. The Ld. CIT(A) has erred in law and on facts in deleting the addition of Rs. 53,89,163/- (A.Y. 2012-13) Rs. 42,02,457/- (A.Y. 2013-14) made on account of commission income. 2. On the facts and circumstances, the ld. CIT(A) ought to have upheld the order of the AO. 3. It is therefore prayed that the order of the Ld. CIT(A) be set aside and that of the order of the Assessing Officer be restored to the above extent. 4.

As such, the assessee has shown commission income net of the discount given to the customers. 6.

Therefore, the AO added the same to the total income of the assessee. 7.

However, this contention of the AO is not correct as the AO has accepted the commission payment to the sub-agent but only disallowed the commission/discount payment to the direct buyer. It is observed that total commission was shown in the books of account but in the Profit and loss account net commission was reflected. It is also observed that the appellant could show the relevant bills and document fled related to direct commission/discount given to the direct customer. Considering the facts mentioned above the contention of the AO is not tenable and addition made by the A.O. is deleted. The grounds of appeal are allowed. 8.
