Challenging the order dated 02.03.2015 in Appeal No 98/13-14/GZN/63 for the assessment year 2010-11 passed by the learned Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals), Muzaffarnagar (for short hereinafter called as the learned CIT(A)), the assessee preferred this appeal.
Where the income of the assessee was exempt under section 11 and the assessee was not carried on the business, section 40(a)(ia) had no application. Moreover, the insertion of Explanation 3 to Section 11 by the Finance Act, 2018 making inter alia the provisions of Section 40(a)(ia) applicable in case of charitable or religious trust or institution with effect from 1st April, 2019 further shows that section 40(a)(ia) hitherto was not applicable in computing income of entities registration u/s 12A of the Act.
This appeal by assessee under section 253 of income tax act is directed against the order of Director of Income tax (Exemptions) Mumbai, dated 22 November 2011 for assessment year 2009-10. The assessee has raised following grounds of appeal

Income Transferred from Capital Fund A/c to Income is eligible for deduction U/s. 11of Income Tax Act, 1961 and provisions of Section 11(3)(c) of the Act clearly permits to utilize the funds either within the specified period or in the next year immediately following the expiry of the period
Where assessee- trust was earning profit up to 45% from its educational activities, it was clearly proved that it was existed for profit because profit up to 15% could be said reasonable and legitimate, hence, addition was rightly made.
Where an institution is not driven primarily by a desire or motive to earn profits but to do charity through the advancement of an object of general public utility, it cannot but be regarded as an institution established for charitable purposes and proviso to section 2(15) could not be applied so as to deny exemption under section 11.
Dissemination of Yoga or vedic philosophy or the practice of yoga or education with respect to yoga was well within the larger term ‘medical relief’ as covered within section 2(15).
