Bot Summary: | The above appeal was earlier heard on 11.7.2019 but before the order could be pronounced the CBDT issued a Circular enhancing the monetary limit for filing appeals by the Department to the I.T.A.T. from Rs.20 lacs to Rs.50 lacs vide its Circular No.17/2019 dated 8.8.2019. In view of the same and since the tax effect involved in this appeal appeared to be less than Rs.50 lacs, the appeal was fixed for hearing again for seeking clarification from both the parties on 28.8.2019.
