3. This Appeal has been filed raising the followingSubstantial Question of Law:-"Whether on the facts and in thecircumstances of the case the Tribunal was rightin holding that the expenses relating to internetexpenses and foreign travel expenses spend inforeign currency outside India, had to beexcluded from export turnover as well as Totalturnover while computing deduction u/s 10B?".
4. We have perused the order of Assessment as well as theOrder passed by the Commissioner of Income Tax and we find thatthe tax effect in this appeal is lesser than the threshold limitmentioned in Circular No.3 of 2018, dated 11.07.2018, issued bythe Central Board of Direct Taxes, which fixes the monetarylimit as Rs.50,00,000/- for the Department to pursue the matter.Furthermore, the Revenue has not been able to point out anydistinguishing features, by which the Circular No.3 of 2018,dated 11.07.2018, cannot be applied.
5.Thus, for the above reasons, the Revenue cannot pursue
this Appeal in view of the low tax effect. Hence, the Appeal isdismissed and the Substantial Question of Law, framed forconsideration, is left open. No costs. The Revenue is atliberty to seek for restoration of appeal, if at a later pointof time, it is found that the tax effect is above the thresholdlimit.
