Bot Summary: Confirmed additions made by the Ld. AO towards amount received from M/s Global Advertisers. The assessee has organized audio release programme at hotel Sun-n-Sand and incurred an amount of Rs. 3,07,785/-. The assesee has debited payment made to Sun-n-Sand Hotels Pvt.Ltd amounting to Rs. 3,07,785/- to audio relese expenses account and credited amount received from M/s. Global Advertisers amounting to Rs. 2,50,000/- and net balance of Rs. 57,785/- has been debited under the head audio release expenses in the profit and loss account. The Ld. AO has made additions towards amount received M/s Global Advertisers, on the ground that said receipt has not been included in profit and loss account. We are of the considered view that when, assessee has filed sufficient evidences to prove that amount received from M/s. Global Advertisers has been included into the profit and loss account against corresponding expenditure incurred for said purpose, there is no reasons for the Ld. AO, as well as Ld.CIT(A) to make additions towards amount received from M/s. Global Advertisers, towards sponsorship. We are of the considered view that the Ld. AO was erred in making additions towards amount received towards sponsorship. The Ld.CIT(A) without appreciating the facts simply confirmed additions made by the Ld. AO. Hence, we reverse the findings of the Ld.CIT(A) and direct the AO to delete additions made towards amount received from Global Advertisers.
