In view of the decision of this court in Phool Chand
Bajrang Lal v. ITO [1993] 203 ITR 456, the plea raised herein by the assessee
does not merit consideration. In view of the said decision, question No.1 has
necessarily to be answered against the assessee and in favour of the Revenue. We
order accordingly. So far as question No. 2 is concerned, since it is merely an
order of remand, it cannot be said to constitute a question of law which merits
consideration by us. The appeal is accordingly dismissed. No costs.
