It is not necessary for us to examine these questions in detail inasmuch as the same are covered in favour of the assessee and against the revenue in view of the Supreme Court decisions in the cases of P. R. Prabhakar v. CIT: (2006) 284 ITR 548 (SC) and CIT v. Baby Marine Exports: (2007) 290 ITR 323 (SC). Consequently, both the questions referred to us in these references are decided against the revenue and in favour of the assessee, following the Supreme Court decision referred to above. The references stand answered accordingly. BADAR DURREZ AHMED, J JANUARY 06, 2010 SR SIDDHARTH MRIDUL, J
