ORAL JUDGMENT
(Per : HONOURABLE MR.JUSTICE R.S.GARG)
Present is a Reference by the Income-Tax Appellate Tribunal, Ahmedabad Bench “C”, at the instance
of the Revenue on the following question for the opinion of this Court:
“Whether on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the Tribunal was right in law in a profession of pathological laboratory could be said to be carrying on a business as an industrial undertaking which produced an article or thing and was thus entitled to investment allowance u/s. 32A of the Act on the new machinery viz. Pacer Machine installed in his clinic?”
2.An identical question between the same parties had come up for our consideration in I.T.R. No.237 of 1995. We have answered the said Reference on 1[st] August, 2006 in favour of the Assessee. As the facts are identical, we are unable to take any different view than what was taken earlier. The question is answered against the interest of the Revenue. The Reference stands disposed of accordingly. No costs.
