JUDGMENT
The Tax Case Appeal filed by the Revenue calling in question the correctness of the order passed by the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, "C" Bench, Chennai dated 14th October 2010 passed in I.T.A.No.212/Mds/2010. has been admitted on 14.09.2011 for consideration of the following substantial questions of law:
"1. Whether on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal was right in confirming the order of the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) cancelling the order of the Assessing Officer under Section 154 levying interest under Section 234B of Rs.9,51,551/-?
2. Whether on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal was right in not holding that the Assessing Officer had not levied any interest on the enhancement on account of the application of the Taxation Laws (Amendment) Act and the levy of interest under Section 234B was confined only to the enhancement of income consequent to set off of negative profit on account of manufacturing activity against trading profit and export incentive which in anyway had to be done even without applying the amendment provisions, on the basis of the Supreme Court's decision in the case of IPCA Laboratories reported in 266 ITR 521?"
2. Circular instruction issued by the Central Board of Direct Taxes No.21/2015, dated 10.12.2015 stipulates that appeals shall not be filed/pursued by the Department before the High Court in cases where the tax effect does not exceed Rs.20 lakhs. In the instant case, the tax effect is less than the monetary limit imposed and the appeal is hence, dismissed as not pressed, preserving the substantial questions of law for determination in an appropriate case. No costs.
