Per Pramod Kumar, VP:

1. By way of this appeal, the Assessing Officer has challenged correctness of the order dated 4th February 2019, passed by the learned CIT(A), in the matter of assessment under section 143(3) of the Income Tax Act, 1961, for the assessment year 2015-16.

2. Grievances raised by the appellant are as follows:

1. "Whether on the facts and circumstances of the case and in law, the Ld.CIT(A) is right in allowing the exemption u/s 11 of the IT. Act in view of proviso to section 2(15) of the I.T. Act, when the receipts from the business of developing, coordinating plants and implementing the rail infrastructure projects, etc. for Indian Railways, exceeded the limit provided in proviso to section 2(15), ignoring the detailed discussion made in assessment order in Para B & C of 6.3".
