In so far as Item (d) Bonus is concerned, it is submitted that the issue is still open. 5. In so far as question of law No.2 is concerned, a similar issue had come up for consideration before this Court in Income Tax Appeal No.72 of 1999 in The Commissioner of Income Tax, Mumbai vs. The Tata Hydro Electric Power Supply Co. Ltd., Mumbai which was disposed of on December 7, 1999. In that matter this Court did not interfere with the findings recorded by the ITAT. Considering the same in our opinion, in so far as Question No.2 (-3-) as framed will not arise. 6. The amount of bonus as mentioned earlier is in a sum of Rs.6,102/-. That issue can be left open for consideration in appropriate case as even otherwise the tax incidence in so far as this issue is concerned is less than Rs.4.00 lakhs. 7. The question of law No.1, therefore, in so far as Guest House expenses to the extent of rates and taxes, repairs and insurance are answered in favour of the Revenue. Appeal disposed of accordingly.
