assessment year 2010-11 in the case of Kodungallur Town Co-Op. Bank
Ltd. Vs. ACIT (supra) again decided the aforesaid issue of claim of
deduction under section 36(1)(vii) of the Act, especially in view of the
ratio laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Catholic Syrian Bank
Ltd. Vs. CIT (supra) relied upon by the Commissioner while invoking
revisionary jurisdiction under section 263 of the Act. The Tribunal held
that the Hon'ble Supreme Court had considered the issue whether the
deduction was allowable to scheduled banks under section 36(1)(vii) of
the Act in respect of bad debts written off and had held that the same
shall be limited to the extent the said debts credit balance in the
provision for bad and doubtful debts account made under clause (viia).
It was further observed by the Tribunal that the assessments in the said
case related to assessment year 2002-03 and prior years and the Apex
Court had considered the law with reference to the fact situation;
whereas the assessee before them was co-operative bank, which was
included in the category of beneficiaries under clause (viia) by the
8
Finance Act, 2007 w.e.f. 01.04.2007. The Tribunal further goes on to
hold that the deduction provided in the first part of clause (viia)(a) of

co-operative banks within ambit of clause (viia)(a) by the Finance Act,

banks. Further, referring to para 27 of the judgment of Apex Court, the
Tribunal held as under:-

Smt. Bandana Gogoi vs Commissioner Of Income-Tax And Anr. on 9 January, 2007
The
Tribunal decided the issue in turn, relying on the ratio laid down by the
Hon'ble High Court of Gauhati in Smt. Bandana Gogoi Vs. CIT & Anr.

High Court in other State. In view of the above said position of law, we
are departing from the view taken by Pune Bench of Tribunal in
assessee's own case relating to assessment year 2010-11, wherein the
order is dated 29.05.2015 but decision of the Hon'ble High Court of
Kerala on the issue is dated 03.04.2014 was neither relied upon nor
brought to the knowledge of Tribunal and the issue was decided against
assessee.
