..... an 487 (Bom) CIT vs. Jawanmal Gemaji Gandhi, so as to avoid double addition. The Revenue s pleadings on the other hand vehemently support the Assessing Officer s action in entirety not allowing the impugned set off. 4. We have given our thoughtful consideration for vehement rival stands. Learned departmental representative could hardly dispute that the foregoing twin judicial precedents are already in assessee s support that such a set off could very well be granted even against jewellery items and vice-versa.
