As identical issues are involved in both these appeals, they are taken up together and disposed of by this common order for the sake of convenience. 2.

We have heard rival submissions and perused the materials available on record.

Both the parties stated that these two appeals may be set aside to the ld. AO with a direction to decide based on the final outcome of the orders passed by this Tribunal for A.Yrs. 2015-16 and 2016-17.
