. Firstly there are two concurrent findings of fact
in favour of Respondents. The tribunal has held
that the assessee was under bona fide belief that
the tax was not deductible. This court in M/s.
Glaxo (India) Ltd. Vs. First Income Tax Officer,
TDS Circle, Bombay in I.T.A. No. 104 to 107/Bom/90
has taken a similar view. A Special Leave Petition
filed by the Revenue was dismissed.
. Considering that this court in Commissioner of
Income Tax Vs. Nicholas Piramal India Ltd. in
I.T.A. No. 432 of 2001 decided on 15th January,
2008 has reiterated that view.
. Considering the above, in our opinion, the
question of law as framed would not arise and
consequently appeal is dismissed.
