Recently, the Mumbai bench of the Income-tax Appellate Tribunal (the Tribunal) in the case of DDIT v. Siemens Aktiengesellschaft (ITA no. 6133/Mum/2002, ITA No. 7589/Mum/2003) held that the withdrawal of circular no. Circular no. 23 dated 23 July 1969 and Circular no. 786 dated 7 February 2000 by Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) is effective from 22 October 2009 as made applicable vide Circular no. 7 dated 22 October 2009.

This has been made clear in the proviso to s. 220(2) as per which where as a result of order under ss. 154, 155 and 245D etc. amount on which interest is payable is reduced the interest would be reduced accordingly. Therefore the interest under s. 220(2) will be legally leviable from the date of default in payment of demand by the assessee till the date of admission of the application by the assessee by Settlement Commission under s. 245D(1).

Thus, the view taken by AO cannot be said to be erroneous which will render the assessment order as erroneous. Neither the AO has drawn incorrect assumption of facts nor AO has rendered incorrect application of law when he accepted the claim of the assessee that advertisement and publicity expenses were allowable as business expenditure
