ORDER

PER KUL BHARAT, JM :

 These two appeals filed by the assessee are directed against the two different orders of Ld. CIT(A)-18, New Delhi dated 06.04.2017 and Ld.CIT(A)-35, New Delhi dated 05.03.2019 for the same assessment year 2011-12. 

2. Out of these two appeals, one appeal i.e. ITA No.3270/Del/2019 is against appeal giving effect by the Assessing Officer and ITA No.5559/Del/2018 is arising out of the original assessment proceedings.

3. Both appeals were heard together and are being disposed by way of a consolidated order. First, we take up ITA No.3270/Del/2019 [Assessment Year 2011-12] filed by the assessee. The assessee has raised following grounds of appeal:-

1. “The CIT(A) erred in law and on facts in confirming the disallowance of the exemption u/s 54 of the Act made by Assessing Officer while giving appeal effect to the CIT(A) order by not correctly appreciating the order of the CIT(A) wherein the said exemption was allowed to the assessee in para 5.10.15. Thus the exemption u/s 54 should be allowed to the assessee.

2. The CIT(A) erred in law and on facts in confirming the disallowance of exemption u/s 54 of the Act in the year under consideration on the basis of non-fulfillment of the condition imposed by the CIT(A in his order though no such condition is prescribed under the Act for claiming the said exemption and ignoring that the CIT(A) is not empowered to impose such condition. Thus the exemption u/s 54 should be allowed to the assessee.”

4. The only effective ground raised by the assessee in this appeal is against the disallowance of claim of exemption u/s 54 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (‘the Act’).
