On the one hand, relying upon the dictionary meaning of the expression "salary" as given in the Shorter Oxford Dictionary and Stroud 's Judicial Dictionary and upon the manner in which the term was defined in Rule 2 of the assessee 's Recognised Provident Fund Scheme Rules, it was contended on behalf of the assessee that the commission of the nature paid by it to its salesmen was nothing but a composite part of the salary itself, the same being determinable as per the terms of the contract and as such the contributions on the basis of such commission made by the assessee to the Provident Fund were deductible under s.36(1)(iv) of the Act; it was further contended that since these payments were being admittedly made to a Provident Fund recognised by the Commissioner of Income Tax, which recognition was in force during the relevant years, the Taxing Authorities could not disallow the deduction claimed by the assessee, and the view taken by the Appellate Assistant Commissioner in respect of assessment years 1963 64 and 1964 65 was canvassed for acceptance.
