Per George George K, JM

This appeal at the instance of the Department is directedagainst CIT(A)’s order dated 31.01.2018. The relevantassessment year is 2012-2013.

2. The grounds raised read as follow:-

“1. The order of the learned Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals) is opposed to law and facts of the case.

2. In the facts and circumstances of the case, the AO disallowed the expenditure claimed by the assessee in the P&L account under the head of amortisation as the same could not partake the character of revenue expenditure, since this amount was incurred fully at the time of SLR investment HELD TO MATURITY (HTM).

3. In the facts and circumstances of the case, the ld.CIT(A), has erred in giving relief to the assessee considering the decision of ITAT, Bangalore in the assessee’s own case for theAssessment Year 2007-08 & 2009-10, while the same issues are pending before the Hon’ble High Court for adjudication.

4. In the facts and circumstances of the case, the ld.CIT(A) has erred in holding that amortisation of premium paid on Government securities in an allowable expenditure ignoring the para 29vi) of CBDT Instruction no.17 of 2008 dated 26.11.2008.
