. The appeal is in respect of Assessment year
1986-87. The Revenue is in appeal against the order
of the Tribunal whereby the learned tribunal has set
aside the penalty levied under Section 271(1)(c) by
holding that the Assessing Officer did not record
his satisfaction. Section 271(1)(b) was introduced
by Finance Act, 2008 with effect from 1.4.1989. We
are concerned with the Assessment year previous to
the amendment. The law as settled before he
amendment can be reflected in the judgment of this
court in CIT Vs. Kanzibhai (1991) 189 ITR 41.
. Considering the above, in our opinion, the
question of law as framed would not arise.
Consequently, appeal dismissed.
. Notice waived on behalf of Respondents.
