The only issue raised herein in the Miscellaneous application is that the Tribunal wrongly granted deduction for Education Cess and Higher Secondary Cess contrary to the law laid down by the Hon’ble Supreme Court in CIT Vs. K. Srinivasan (1972) 83 ITR 346 (SC). M.A.No.196/PUN/2022 Garrett Motion Technologies (I) Pvt. Ltd. 2 3. At the outset, the ld. DR submitted that by virtue of Clause 13 of Finance Bill, 2022 and the judgment of Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of CIV Vs. K. Srinivasan (supra), the issue raised by the assessee through an additional ground for grant of deduction of Education Cess and Secondary & Higher Education Cess has to be disallowed since the amendment is retrospective in nature. The ld. AR was fair enough to concede the position and preferred not to press the additional ground raised at the time of hearing of the appeal u/s 254(1) of the Act. Having regard to the statutory amendment carried out to section 40(a) with retrospective effect covering the year under consideration, the Tribunal order dated 14-10-2021 in ITA No.3074/PUN/2017 is modified to this extent. Ergo, the additional ground raised by the assessee is dismissed. 4. In the result, the Miscellaneous Application is allowed. Order pronounced in the Open Court on 26 th April, 2023.
